Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the dialogues and
approaches between the areas of medical and educational
knowledge, in the state of Paraíba, from 1919 to 1945. Our
intention was to problematize how different individuals of that
time dealt with health education, especially the primary school
students. We based our reflections from political speeches and
writings, newspaper articles, journals and letters exchanged by
doctors from Paraíba in that period. The analysis of these
sociocultural experiences was structured from a theoretical and
methodological collaboration based on the New Cultural History
contributions, following Roger Chartier and Michel Certeau.
