الأنساق الكرنفالية في الطقوس الشعبية الأمازيغية

Abstract EN

The concept of carnivalesque is a rich material in cotemporary cultural studies.

however, this concept in its analytical aspect is no longer related to texts only, but it has transcended it to other artistic practices, such as films, youth songs and mass creations, not to mention its involvement in political discourses and party debates, as well as the ceremonial practices of some ethnic and cultural entities as well.

therefore, this study aims at penetrating into the Amazigh folk culture heart, and studying some of its marginal festive forms moving in the simple gaps left by the center, which does not only ignore this kind of practices, but also leaves the field completely open to a counter-performance formation in which rigid identities and entrenched social centers are temporary negotiated ; a performance that takes the criteria reverse creation of exaltation and inferiority, mortification and revival, in addition to sanctification and desecration as its core.

it is hideous, carnival and serious playing techniques through which he intends to create a second life based on chaos, laughter and a permanent reversal of standards.
