Resumen
Este texto intentará llevar adelante un ejercicio de comparación entre las comparaciones efectuadas por mí y aquellas realizadas por mis interlocutores tobas (qom) del Chaco argentino, con miras a dilucidar las herramientas con las cuales ellos y yo las realizamos. Partiré de tres acontecimientos ocurridos durante mi trabajo de campo realizado desde 1997 hasta el presente que remiten al contexto que podríamos calificar como la “locura” y que refieren a cuestiones ontológicas. Los casos expuestos me permitirán mostrar el contraste explicitado por mis interlocutores entre los modos no índigenas (blancos) y qom de concebir la locura-el devenir-otro, y reflexionar sobre los desafíos que implica concentrarse en el quid de la comparación desde el punto de vista de nuestros interlocutores indígenas.
This paper tries to carry out a comparative exercise between the comparisons made by me and those made by the Toba people (qom) of the Argentinean Chaco. I will try to elucidate the tools with which they and I made these comparisons possible. I will refer to three events that occurred during my fieldwork carried out from 1997 to the present. These cases are related to the context of that we may call as “madness”, and that have ontological implications. The events show the contrasts explained by my indigenous interlocutors between a non indigenous and a qom way of conceiving madness-becoming-other. These ethnographic cases will allow us to reflect upon the challenges involved in concentrating on the quid of the comparison from the Toba point of view.
