OLIVEIRA, Flávia Moreira; SANTO, Adriana Amaral do Espírito; AGUIAR, Marcela Peralva  e  VILELA, Ana Maria Jacó. Psychology and female presence in medical and catholic discourses in the first half of the 20th (twentieth) century. Aletheia [online]. 2010, n.31, pp. 184-198. ISSN 1413-0394.

This article aims at analyzing interfaces of female production in the beginning of the 20th (twentieth) century with the creation of the “psi” space in Brazil, using for this purpose an article from a catholic journal “A Ordem” and a thesis from Rio de Janeiro School of Medicine. More precisely, our focus is the first decade of the century, since the first female productions of psychological features we had access to at the School of Medicine and the consulted editions of the journal date from this period. Medicine and Catholic Church productions were elected as privileged sources based on a deeper research that demonstrated the great importance religious and medical discourses had in the construction of the psychology field in Brazil.

Palavras-chave : Woman; Medicine; Catholicism.
