RESUMO
Enfoca os embates entre os tipos de medicina praticados em Goiás no século XIX, momento em que o discurso médico científico se impõe e define os espaços de atuação dos médicos diplomados em detrimento dos não diplomados, considerados charlatães pelos primeiros. Sobrelevam-se da análise os conflitos derivados da tentativa da medicina acadêmica de impor-se sobre as demais artes de curar, evidenciando sua dificuldade em instituir o privilégio exclusivo das atividades terapêuticas. Destaca ainda, por meio da trajetória profissional de três médicos que fizeram carreira no interior do Brasil, o lento processo de consolidação da medicina.
ABSTRACT
The article centers on conflicts between the types of medicine practiced in nineteenth-century Goiás, when the discourse of scientific medicine imposed its presence and defined the spaces where physicians holding medical degrees could practice while precluding those without degrees, viewed as charlatans by the former. The analysis underscores the clashes triggered as academic medicine endeavored to hold sway over other healing arts, along with the challenges it encountered in establishing an exclusive claim to the practice of medical treatment. The careers of three physicians from the interior of Brazil serve to illustrate the slow process by which medicine achieved institutionalization.
