This article analyzes how medical discourse incorporated a series of reflections on moral behaviors in Buenos Aires in the early nineteenth century. Based on the study of three texts authored by the physicians Diego Alcorta, Guillermo Rawson and Francisco Javier Muñiz, it identifies a series of discursive registers that stress the role of organ functions, the question of heredity and the influence of climate in reflections on the morality of individuals and populations. This phenomenon of knowledge transfer is due to the presence of the French medical tradition, in addition to local factors stemming from the intense process of politicization of society under the second administration of Juan Manuel de Rosas.
本文分析了19世纪初医学话语如何纳入了对布宜诺斯艾利斯道德行为的一系列思考。基于对医生迭戈·阿尔科塔、吉列尔莫·罗森和弗朗西斯科·哈维尔·穆尼兹所著三篇文本的研究,它确定了一系列话语记录,这些记录在对个人和群体道德的思考中强调了器官功能的作用、遗传问题以及气候的影响。这种知识转移现象归因于法国医学传统的存在,以及在胡安·曼努埃尔·德·罗萨斯的第二届政府统治下,社会高度政治化进程所产生的当地因素。
