Neste trabalho, volto-me para aquilo que é denominado genericamente de Umbanda Esotérica, indicando como há uma gama de possibilidades no arranjo entre a Nova Era e a Umbanda, que se produz através da percepção dos agentes de que os elementos presentes nestes dois universos são distintos, porém não são opostos. Realizo esses apontamentos a partir de algumas incursões em campo em dois centros de Umbanda na região metropolitana de Florianópolis, buscando destacar a pluralidade de práticas possíveis nesse diálogo entre Nova Era e Umbanda.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2016-08-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/rever/article/view/29387REVER: Journal for the Study of Religion; Vol. 16 No. 2 (2016): Nova Era: aportes teóricos e situacionais; 92-107REVER: Revista de Estudos da Religião; v. 16 n. 2 (2016): Nova Era: aportes teóricos e situacionais; 92-1071677-1222reponame:Rever (São Paulo.
