FundaÃÃo Cearense de Apoio ao Desenvolvimento Cientifico e TecnolÃgico / Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo investigar as histÃrias de vida de mulheres romeiras, participantes da ReuniÃo das TrÃs Horas, em Juazeiro do Norte, buscando compreender, pela via biogrÃfica, como as experiÃncias sociorreligiosas, vivenciadas por mulheres romeiras, repercutem na constituiÃÃo de processos formativos de suas identidades e subjetividades. O processo investigativo conjugou fundamentos e procedimentos da pesquisa (auto)biogrÃfica e da etnografia. Teve como cenÃrio principal a ReuniÃo das TrÃs Horas, um evento organizado pela Pastoral da Romaria, realizado, sempre Ãs quinze horas, nos perÃodos das principais romarias. Utilizou como fontes: a) as narrativas biogrÃficas produzidas pelas mulheres romeiras, expressas nas entrevistas narrativas e, posteriormente, transformadas em histÃrias de vida; b) os fragmentos biogrÃficos (testemunhos e benditos), apresentados nessa reuniÃo e na atividade integradora; c) observaÃÃes etnogrÃficas, registros audiovisuais, entrevistas focalizadas e o diÃrio de itinerÃncia. O material produzido e coletado, ao longo da pesquisa, foi analisado com base no mÃtodo de anÃlise textual discursiva. A anÃlise das histÃrias de vida possibilitou compreender que, as experiÃncias sociorreligiosas, marcadas pela condiÃÃo de tornar-se romeira, ser romeira devota e fazer-se romeira devota e engajada; correlacionadas Ãs circunstÃncias de ser, estar e permanecer em romaria, geram mudanÃas importantes que, levam a um despertar da consciÃncia de si e da condiÃÃo romeira. Estas constituem as experiÃncias fundadoras e formadoras, de suas trajetÃrias e criam sentidos existenciais. A percepÃÃo desses sentidos propicia transformaÃÃes de atitudes e comportamentos, capazes de contribuir para um empoderamento pessoal e coletivo. No conjunto, as aprendizagens experienciais e os saberes existenciais, apreendidos nesses percursos, colaboram para a formaÃÃo das identidades de romeiras, devotas e engajadas, e contribuem para a consolidaÃÃo, continuidade e transmissÃo de sentidos estruturais da romaria e de processos coletivos de empoderamento. / This research aims to investigate the life stories of religious pilgrim women, known as romeiras, participants of âMeeting at three oâclockâ, in the city of Juazeiro do Norte. This meeting has as objective the comprehension, biographically, of how the socioreligious experiences experienced by romeiras women repercuted in the constitution of formative processes of their identities and subjectivities. Our investigative process combined grounds and procedures of ethnography and (auto) biographical research. Our principal point was the âMeeting at three oâclockâ, an event organized by the Pastoral of Pilgrimage, that always happens at three oâclock, in the most principal periods of catholic pilgrimage. We use âMeeting at three oâclockâ as our research place, and as source: a) biographical narrative produced by catholic religious pilgrim women expressed in spoken interviews, and later transformed into life stories; b) biographical fragments presented in the meeting (life reports, testimonies, prayers popular sacred music, known as âbenditos, etc) and integrative activity (autobiographical albums and mandalas); c) ethnographic observations, audiovisual records, focused interviews and roaming journal. The material produced and collected throughout this research was analyzed based in the method of textual discursive analysis. The analysis of life stories has made it possible for us to comprehend that the socioreligious experiences, marked by the condition of being a romeira, devout and engaged, correlated to the circumstances of being, staying and remaining at catholic pilgrimage, known as romaria, generate important changes that lead to a self-awareness awakening and condition of religious pilgrim, which creates existential senses. These theses constitute founders and trainers experiences of their trajectories and create existential senses. The perception of these senses leads us to the transformation of attitudes and behaviors capable of contributing to a personal and collective empowerment. On the whole, the experiential learning and knowledge, learned in this process, contribute to the formation of the identities of romeiras, devoted and engaged, and to the consolidation, continuity and transmission of structural meanings of collective processes of empowerment.
