Resumen
La frontera es más que un límite. Sin embargo, en los estudios sobre ellas éste no se puede desdibujar. Este artículo muestra cómo los límites que dividen las poblaciones de Leticia (Colombia) y Tabatinga (Brasil) son fruto de la relación entre estas dos ciudades con la frontera, relación que espacialmente se expresa mediante mecanismos simbólicos que manifiestan las diferencias entre los dos estados. Estas expresiones espaciales no desaparecen con los cambios en las fronteras, sino que varían las formas en que se simbolizan en el territorio.
The article reflects on the way dream experiences have been addressed by an-thropology, taking up my fieldwork experience with Pilagá women of the Gran Chaco Region. It discusses the assumptions, implicit or explicit, of some anthropological approaches to the analysis of dreams and their excessive concentration on the relation of dreams to shamanism and mythology. Based on ethnographic material obtained with some Pilaga women, it takes up the links, as established by one of my main collaborators, between dreaming, narrating, inter-preting, doing, and copying. It aims to emphasize that the relations between dream experience and practical action correspond to what I call the “pedagogy of oneiromancy”, a category that stresses the web that connects representations to the behavior and actions associated with the life trajectories and recent experiences of indigenous women.
