Folclore, linguagem e comunicação: perspectivas para uma visão transcultural da cultura

Abstract

The purpose of this article was to establish a relationship between language, culture and folklore. Folklore, as a social and cultural expression of a folk, was discussed in the first step of the text, since the origin of the word, through the laws that ensure the freedom to experience it, until an overview in Brazil, trying to understand that we experience and feel the folklore in our daily lives, inherited from the junction of different folks. Besides that, the impact of folklore in a cross-sectional view was written. In the second step, we tried to show the language in its relation with culture and the importance of language, mainly written, in the construction and cultural preservation. We tried to understand the sense of cultural diversity expressed through the language, as a point of complementation and interlocution and not as an element of disaggregation and disjunction. The last stage of the article was the debate around Weltanschauung, a concept that embraces reality, which serves as a basis for the interpretation of the world. What is seen and understood, needs to be filtered by the "world view". The need of a cross-cultural and transdisciplinary vision is necessary, since the world we have is the result of ourselves and the interpretation of the lived world. So, in the relationship between language, culture and folklore, there is not a closure, a one-sidedness of a culture, but a fusion that enriches each other.
