Resumo
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.
