Abstract(s)
O Círio de Nossa Senhora do Cabo, ou Círio dos Saloios, é uma peregrinação feita anualmente, desde o século XV, entre a região saloia, nos arredores de Lisboa, até ao santuário do Cabo Espichel. Pretende-se analisar a forma como esta prática religiosa, a que se associam actividades profanas, tem evoluído e como é vivida na actualidade, identificando as motivações de quem o procura, entre a devoção e o lazer. Procura-se, ainda, compreender os efeitos do turismo no sentido do lugar, considerando a projectada reconversão das antigas hospedarias de peregrinos em unidade hoteleira. O estudo, de carácter qualitativo e descrito, baseia-se numa revisão da literatura a partir de fontes históricas, complementado com entrevistas não estruturadas e observações participantes. Na sequência da constatação da revitalização do culto, recuperando tradições abandonadas, enquanto outras se perdem ou são modificadas, conclui-se que a transformação do culto pode ser entendida como um factor que contribui para a sua continuidade.
The Círio of Our Lady of the Cabo, also known as Círio dos Saloios, has beena pilgrimage since the XV century,far from the sanctuary at cap Espichel to the far away rural communities of the neighbouring diocese of Lisbon. It is intended to analysehow this religious practice, associated with profane activities, has been evolving through timeand pilgrims are experiencing it, identifying their motivations, between devotion and leisure. An attempt is made to understand the effects of tourism in the place perception, considering the projected reconversion of the old pilgrims’ inns into ahotel unit. The qualitative descriptive research is based on a review of the literature, including historical resources, complemented with unstructured interviews and participant observations. Recognizing the religious cult’s revival, which had been recovering abandoned traditions, while others are lost or modified, it is concluded that the transformation of the cult can be understood as a factor that contributes to itscontinuity.
