ABSTRACT
Following the format put forth by Imber-Black and Roberts, I examine daily rituals, family traditions, holidays, and life cycle rituals during the pandemic of COVID-19. Marked by symbols capable of carrying multiple meanings, symbolic actions, special time and special place, and newly invented and adapted rituals are illustrated through stories of couples, families, and communities.
Siguiendo el formato presentado por Imber-Black, Roberts y Whiting (1988), analizo los rituales diarios, las tradiciones familiares, las festividades y los rituales del ciclo de vida durante la pandemia de la COVID-19. Los rituales recientemente inventados y adaptados -marcados por símbolos capaces de cargar varios significados, acciones simbólicas, un tiempo especial y un lugar especial- se ejemplifican mediante historias de parejas, familias y comunidades.
