Anthropology and coloniality: brief anthropology of UFPE anthropologists in their rites and learning experiences

Abstract

How is the perception of reality modified by anthropology? To answer this question is an experiment: to ethnograph the development of an anthropological theory discipline in a postgraduate in anthropology at a federal university. Thus, starting from the idea of a science can be realized as a social fact, from the participant observation during the first semester of 2019 in classes of the chair of History and Anthropological Theory I, in the Federal University of Pernambuco. The writing of this article was made by the teacher and a student of the discipline, in an exercise, not always comfortable, designed to intend positions and create interpretations formulated between the learning of the teacher and the student. A working hypothesi, is that anthropological interpretation of social reality act on the perception, worldview, of all actors involved.
