Popis: Os significados da 'maravilha' no contexto do Reinado de Nossa Senhora do Rosário, tal como o termo é utilizado nos cantos e nas elaborações discursivas dos congadeiros, são aqui abordados a partir da perspectiva desses participantes sobre a origem e o percurso histórico de sua tradição religiosa, calcada na experiencia da dor de seus ancestrais escravizados. Tais fatos e eventos ainda motivam o pertencimento a essa tradição no presente e preenchem de sentido, de significância e, consequentemente, de maravilha as ações performáticas atuais. The text approaches the meanings of 'wonder' in the context of the Afro-Brazilian ritual called the 'Reign of Our Lady of the Rosary', according to the way it is applied in the songs' lyrics and in participants' verbal discourses. Analyses were based on participants' perspectives about the origin and history of their religious tradition, which is based on their enslaved ancestors' experiences of pain. Those facts and events still highlight the sense of belonging to this tradition nowadays and make their performative acts meaningful, significant and thus wonderful.
