Body, Language and The Real: The Breath Of Exu Bará and its Place in Communication DravetFlorence Marie 2018 <p></p><p>AbstractThe present article seeks to essay a body-thought that allows perceiving communication as a process in which body, language and real are integrated, living elements, animated by the same breath that crosses them. To this end, we look at the notion of Exu Bará for Afro-Brazilian nagôs as experienced in its communities. We analyze its myths and its language, its forms of manifestation, his gestures, to seize its semantic and sensorial sense. We adopt a poetic methodology in an attempt to achieve a thought in motion.
