| Resumo: | In June 1939, Gonçalves Fernandes visited Maceió, almost thirty years after the episode that became locally known as “1912 racket”, involving the destruction of almost every afro-religious cult house in the state’s capital and neighbouring towns. Gonçalves Fernandes noticed the existence of a religious modality that he called “silent candomblé”, having dedicated to the subject all the first chapter of his book O Sincretismo Religioso no Brasil. the ceremonies carried out in cult houses in Maceió in that period are described by Fernandes as a closed liturgy, with neither dances and chants nor the excitement caused by the drums, being, therefore, ceremonies surrounded by mystery and secret where whispering and non-fancy attitudes prevailed. |
