FIGARI, Carlos Eduardo. Escritos en el cuerpo Higienismo y construcción médica de la homosexualidad en el Basil Republicano (1889-1940). Antipod. Rev. Antropol. Arqueol. [online]. 2006, n.3, pp.23-52. ISSN 1900-5407.

The creation of the Brazilian national State, in consonance with the regulation of the sexualized and racialized body, was upheld by the ideological apparatus of the medical corporation. This article explores the ways in which a colonized medical discourse determined sex/gender antagonistic differences and the creation of the homosexual subject as a pathological category and taxonomy, especially during the republican period. That discourse was also over-determined by race and class subordination, as markers of the abject.

Palavras-chave : Homosexuality; Medical Discourse; Hygienism; Abjection; Brazil.
