In this study, the folk tales, pamphlets, and sermons of Frei Damião de Bozzano are examples of expressions of oral tradition culture. These texts provide information about the history of popular religiosity in Paraíba in the 20th century. The central focus of this approach is therefore what and how these expressions tell us about the religiosity of readers and listeners of folk tales, pamphlets, and sermons. In this sense, we analyze the perspective of the composition of this religiosity, tracing the set of beliefs that have been maintained or reworked in the relationship between oral tradition and written tradition. Thus, taken as a documentary corpus, these expressions have enabled us to court cultural and social practices in which popular religiosity expresses and transmits values.
