Ruy Cinatti e (ainda) o "problema da habitação": do habitat de Timor a uma "Arquitetura da alma"

Abstract

Arquitetura da Alma [Architecture of the Soul] is a book written by RuyCinatti where he reflects about the symbolic character of the typical house in EastTimor: a house-world, a microcosms that reproduces the macrocosms. But this isnot only an anthropological work to Cinatti: the poetry of R. Cinatti can also beread with this anthropological scope. The house is a fundamental metaphor tocontemplate the borders permanently established and contested by the individualor by the community, to delimit spaces of inclusion or inclusion, of integration orexile.
