- Summary:
- The book 'Gazeta Medica da Bahia: discurso emergente para doenças epidêmicas no século XIX' by Davilene Souza Santos delves into the historical discourse surrounding epidemic diseases in 19th-century Bahia, Brazil. It focuses on the social and cultural history of medicine, exploring the political and economic challenges that hindered medical advancements during this period. Through meticulous analysis of the Gazeta Medica da Bahia, the author highlights the efforts of foreign and local doctors to combat diseases like yellow fever and cholera, contributing to the foundation of the 'Escola Tropicalista Baiana.' The book challenges the narrative of Oswaldo Cruz's pioneering role, emphasizing earlier attempts to establish experimental medicine in Bahia despite economic and legislative obstacles. Using qualitative discourse analysis and Bourdieu's scientific field theory, Santos constructs a comprehensive narrative that examines medical discourses and the historical context of these efforts, aiming to enlighten readers about the scientific and cultural struggles in the development of medicine.
