- Geraldo Horacio de Paula Souza, China and Chinese medicine, 1928-1943(2013) ROLAND, Maria Ines de Franca; GIANINI, Reinaldo JoseThis essay is on the writings of sanitary doctor Geraldo Horacio de Paula Souza in Eugenia e Imigracao (1928) and, after an official trip to the Orient, in Digressoes sobre a medicina chinesa classica (1942) and A sabedoria chinesa diante da ciencia ocidental e a Escola Medica de Pequim (1943). The documents, analyzed according to the conceptual approach of Carlo Ginzburg, indicate a change in his view of the Chinese. Trained according to the Rockefeller Foundation's model of experimental medicine, Geraldo de Paula Souza was guided in his work by scientific rigor and record imagery. In his youth he was of the opinion that the Chinese civilization was stagnated, but this view changed after his visit, when he perceived the Chinese republic's capacity to modernize.
