Abstract
A partir de la relación entre cosmovisión y etnoteorías parentales y su expresión en prácticas de crianza infantil me he aproximado a la construcción de la persona en los primeros años de vida entre los mayas de Yucatán. Centro este trabajo en la ceremonia de hetsmek’, ya que sugiero puede verse como expresión del papel que juegan las entidades anímicas y la agencia humana en las etnoteorías parentales, al tomar en cuenta la conformación de los niños. Los padres, apoyados en los padrinos, contribuyen simbólicamente a abrirle el camino al infante para que desarrolle las capacidades que definirán su entendimiento. En conjunto evocan las que caracterizan a los seres de maíz en el génesis maya. En particular, la responsabilidad y la adquisición de conciencia se relacionan con ik’, atributo que permite al individuo relacionarse con el mundo al igual que ool y cuyos significados múltiples y relaciones requieren mayor investigación para entender la construcción de la persona entre los mayas de Yucatán.
ABSTRACT
I approach the cultural construction of the idea of person in the first years of life among the Yucatec Maya through the relationship between parental ethnotheories and worldview. I focus in the hetsmek’ ceremony and suggest that it may be seen as the expression in parental ethnotheories of the role played by souls and human society in the formation of children. Parents and godparents symbolically contribute to open the infant’s road in order to develop the abilities that will define the concept of understanding. These evoke the characteristics of human beings modeled from corn as described in the Maya genesis. Among them, responsibility and awareness relate toik’. Together with ool, they refer to the attributes that allow the individual to engage in the world and which require further investigation into their multiple meanings and relations if we are to better understand the construction of the person among the Maya of Yucatan.
