Nos-otros [sic] los Magosautorretratos de la posmodernidad (Norte de Tenerife)

Abstract

These essay follows the definition of the outlines of a group that is already «naturalized» and under the myth of what is referd as the social construction of «la canariedad», particulary in the rural zones —the North of Tenerife—; «los magos»; that far from the repeated conservation and patrimonial harangue, keeps on in the excess for reveal «truths» in the preterite- present, quantify their social reality, its peculiarities as a mode of folkloric enumeration for legitimate this present, would be worried of its multiplied images in strech relation with the social conditions that afects the act of power wich conform identities. For this we will pay attention to the discourses about the origin, in a way to percieve history as a social group related to other groups, in its unequeal and heterogenic essence, trying to unmask the provisional, dividing, hybrid geography, as well as its postmodern context in wich these proceses, far from loosing its sense, they are seen in the new global frenzy re-divulge and intensify.
