In the narrative of the wonderful fetishist, the mystic is the basis of analysis in uanga, where the stories are told in a traditional, engaging environment, whose characters represent the way of being and acting of rural and semi-urban communities. Uanga summarizes the modus vivendi of an entire people emanating from superstitions and beliefs to the spirits. Uanga is a work that highlights the habits, uses and customs of the Angolan people. For this reason we chose the novel for the study of the mystic, that is, the spiritual world of the Angolan people. The choice of article is due to the fact that Óscar Ribas was one of the few Angolan writers who sought to bring to light the study of subjects related to our culture, aspects to be banned by many, both national and non-national. On the other hand, the investigation in Angola for reasons of cultural studies is a matter of concern on our part. With the study in excerpt, we intend to show how mysticism is a belief among the Bantu and the oral tradition is based on this narration.
