Resumo: The article aims to investigate the diagnosis construction of epidemic madness produced around the “choreiform abasia” epidemic in the suburb of Itapagipe, Salvador, in 1882, defended by Brazilian physician Raimundo Nina Rodrigues (1862-1906). It was a brain dysfunction that caused involuntary movements in lower limbs when patients were walking. Its epidemic character, the studies argued, was attributed to contagion by imitation. Based on the methodology proposed by British historian Quentin Skinner, the article investigates Nina Rodrigues’ intentions and motives in elaborating the diagnostic of chorea epidemic focusing on two determinant axis of contagion: the propitious social environment and the predisposition of patients.

Tratava-se de uma disfunção cerebral que causava movimentos involuntários nos membros inferiores quando os enfermos andavam em marcha. Seu caráter epidêmico, defendiam os estudos, era atribuído ao contágio por imitação. Com base na metodologia proposta pelo historiador britânico Quentin Skinner, o artigo investiga as intenções e motivações de Nina Rodrigues ao elaborar o diagnóstico da epidemia de coreia centrado em dois eixos determinantes do contágio: o meio social propício e a predisposição dos enfermos.Universidade Estadual de Campinas2019-12-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionTextoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/otherapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/resgate/article/view/865658010.20396/resgate.v27i2.8656580Resgate: Revista Interdisciplinar de Cultura; Vol. 27 No. 2 (2019): jul./dez.
