El nuevo bailarín religioso: Los intentos de la Iglesia Católica por reconfigurar la Fiesta de La Tirana 1950-1989.

The main objective of this research is to analyze the relationship between the religious dances of La Tirana and the Catholic Church between 1950 and 1989. The sources used for this work range from the oral interview of the participants, press fragments and documents of the religious. The results show the existence of a conflict based on the way of representing and understanding religious practices by both groups. In this way, the Catholic Church through a series of strategies managed to evangelize the religious dancer from a clear Marian conception to a Christocentric one. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
