Abstract

Glavni cilj tega magistrskega dela je analizirati religiozni sinkretizem v romanu Écue-Yamba- Ó kubanskega avtorja Aleja Carpentierja. Roman, ki je izšel leta 1933, je delo latinskoameriške književnosti, ki raziskuje verske in duhovne prakse v kontekstu afro-karibske kulture. Religiozni sinkretizem je kulturni in verski proces, v katerem se različne verske tradicije ali duhovna prepričanja združujejo in tako ustvarjajo novo obliko religije ali duhovne prakse. V primeru romana Écue-Yamba-Ó gre predvsem za verovanja afriških civilizacij in krščansko vero kolonizatorjev. Skozi zgodovino so stiki med temi kulturami v Latinski Ameriki privedli do sinkretične fuzije. Cilj magistrskega dela je tudi analiza literarne obravnave religioznega sinkretizma in različnih predhodnih kulturnih manifestacij afriške tradicije v zgodnji afrokubanski pripovedi Aleja Carpentierja. Poleg tega poskuša raziskati in zagotoviti bistvene informacije o afrokubanski folklori, religijah, antropologiji in kulturi, da bi dosegli poglobljeno razumevanje procesa transkulturacije in sinkretizma, na katerem temelji to delo. Velik del afriške zgodovine, ki so jo črni sužnji prinesli na otok od začetka trgovine s sužnji, je še vedno prisoten v kubanski kulturi in religiji. Na otoku se je mešanje afriških tradicij z zahodno kulturo in religijo nadaljevalo že v času španske vladavine. Vendar je špansko-ameriška književnost to kubansko stvarnost začela odražati šele v 20. stoletju, z nekaj manjšimi izjemami. Prav v 20. stoletju so bila po zaslugi pisateljev, kot je Alejo Carpentier, ki je bil aktiven v takratnem avantgardnem gibanju, verovanja in folklora temnopoltih Kubancev vključena v literaturo. Bil je začetnik afrokubanskega pripovedništva, saj je v literaturo vnesel elemente, ki so predstavljali kulturno in versko bogastvo ljudi afriškega porekla na Kubi.

Secondary title: Religiozni sinkretizem v romanu Écue-Yamba-Ó Aleja Carpentierja
Secondary abstract: The main objective of this master's thesis is to analyse the religious syncretism present in the novel Écue-Yamba-Ó by the Cuban author Alejo Carpentier. The novel, published in 1933, is a work of Latin American literature that explores religious and spiritual practices in the context of Afro-Caribbean culture. Religious syncretism is a cultural and religious process in which different religious traditions or spiritual beliefs combine or merge to give rise to a new form of religion or spiritual practice. In the case of the novel Écue-Yamba-Ó it is mainly the beliefs of African civilisations and the Christian faith of the colonisers. Throughout history, contact between these cultures has led to a syncretistic fusion in Latin America. The aim of the master's thesis is also to analyse the literary treatment of religious syncretism and the various preceding cultural manifestations of the African tradition in Alejo Carpentier's early Afro-Cuban narrative. In addition, it seeks to investigate and provide essential information on Afro-Cuban folklore, religions, anthropology and culture, in order to achieve a profound understanding of the process of transculturation and syncretism that underlies this work. Much of the African history that black slaves brought to the island from the beginning of the slave trade is still present in Cuban culture and religion. On the island, there was a blending of African traditions with Western culture and religion that continued from the time of Spanish rule. However, Spanish-American literature did not begin to reflect this Cuban reality until the 20th century, with a few minor exceptions. It was in the 20th century, thanks to figures such as Alejo Carpentier, who was active in the avant-garde movement of the time, that the beliefs and folklore of black Cubans were incorporated into literature. He was the forerunner in Afro- Cuban narrative, introducing into literature elements that represented the cultural and religious richness of people of African descent in Cuba.
