Abstract

In the first part of this research, in terms of communication processes, two ways of celebrating the carnival in Paraguay are analyzed: the urban festivities and the indigenous celebration with the Guaraní ritual of the Chaco. It covers the analysis of the amorphous styles of festivities in the main urban concentrations and departmental heads of the country, in contrast to what has a religious and pagan celebration in a Chiriguano community in the Paraguayan Chaco, a community that Is part of the Tupí-Guaraní linguistic family.
