Resumen

The production of textiles, songs, stories and riddles is an essential element in the everyday life of Roça Grande, a community in the Jequitinhonha river Valley, Brazil; they provide both material and symbolic means of survival for the community. Social and economic changes brought by interaction with the outside world have led to modifications in the system of meaning that organizes the society. These changes led to a redefinition in the symbolic constructs that define male and female domains in society. The symbolism of textiles, songs and oral narratives express how cultural concepts that organize the boundarics between gender constructs are created and negotiated by the individuais in the dinainics of social change
