fundamentalist
Significado: A person who adheres strictly to the basic principles of any subject or discipline, especially one who interprets religious texts literally and resists modern reinterpretation.
Originally coined to describe a movement within American Protestantism in the early 20th century, fundamentalist has broadened to encompass rigid adherence to any doctrine. In British media, it is most often applied to religious conservatism but also appears in economic and political contexts: market fundamentalist, constitutional fundamentalist. The term is rarely used as a self-description and almost always carries critical overtones.
