Through the ethnography of a Catholic community in Northeast
Brazil, Maya Mayblin offers a vivid and provocative rethink of
gendered portrayals of Catholic life. For the residents of Santa
Lucia, life is conceptualized as a series of moral tradeoffs
between the sinful and productive world against an idealized state
of innocence, conceived with reference to local Catholic teachings.
As marriage marks the beginning of a productive life in the world,
it also marks a phase in which moral personhood comes most
actively-and poignantly-to the fore. This book offers lucid
observations on how men and women as husbands and wives, fathers
and mothers, negotiate this challenge. As well as making an
important contribution to the ethnographic literature on morality,
Christianity, and Latin America, the book offers a compelling
alternative to received portrayals of gender polarity as
symbolically all-encompassing, throughout the Catholic world.
