Resumen
Italianos que hablaban francés, miembros de una iglesia reformada dos siglos antes de La Reforma, colonos rurales vertebrados por la fe, y un largo etcétera, hacen que el caso de los miembros de la Iglesia Evangélica Valdense del Río de la Plata (IEVRP) no sea uno más dentro de un proceso migratorio bastante conocido. Muchas fueron las estrategias que, orientadas por sus pastores, mantuvieron unida a la comunidad en la diáspora americana desde 1857 hasta la actualidad. Una de ellas fue la celebración anual de la gratitud a Dios por sus dones mediante la “Fiesta de la cosecha”. La celebración lograba la comunión en la fe, el encuentro festivo de la congregación y recursos económicos para el sostenimiento del culto. La fiesta fue una creación de los inmigrantes en destino deslindada de la tradición en su país de origen —cuyo autor puede identificarse— y su celebración, desde los espacios utilizados hasta la gastronomía, eminentemente rioplatense. Se expandió por las más de treinta colonias en Argentina y Uruguay, y acompañando el proceso de des ruralización, fue mudando su nombre a Fiesta de la Gratitud, que permitió a la comunidad dispersa (inmigrante y confesional a la vez) mantenerse aglutinada.
Italians who spoke French, members of a reformed church two centuries before the Reformation, rural settlers who were vertebrate by faith, and a long etcetera, make the case of the members of the Valdense Evangelical Church of Río de la Plata (IEVRP) not be one more within a well-known migratory process. Many were the strategies that, guided by their pastors, kept the community together in the Río de la Plata diaspora from 1857 to the present. One was the annual celebration of gratitude to God for his gifts through the “Harvest Feast”. The party achieved communion in faith, the festive meeting of the congregation and financial resources for the support of the cult. The party was a creation of the immigrants in the new destination, without tradition in their country of migration, and its celebration, from the spaces used to gastronomy, eminently from the Río de la Plata. The work analyses the Valdenses harvest feast from different coordinates that include both its meaning and its practice and transformation over time. The Harvest Feast was an invented tradition whose author can be identified, which expanded through the more than 30 colonies in Argentina and Uruguay, which changed its name to Fiesta de la Gratitud accompanying the process of de realization and that allowed the scattered community (immigrant and confessional at the same time) to remain agglutinated.
