SUMMARY:

This thesis aims to analyze medical discourses through campaigns to combat the spread of the HIV virus, and in turn, the disease it causes: AIDS, circulated in newspapers in Paraíba, as well as in the work of infectious disease doctors. - linked to the Clementino Fraga Hospital in João Pessoa, providing hospital care to patients affected by the HIV virus, between 1985 and 1995. We propose to carry out this analysis, based on the first news about the presence of the HIV virus in Paraíba, analyzing the historical permanences and ruptures over a period of 10 (ten) years in confronting the so-called HIV/AIDS epidemic through the press and also seeking the action of the Clementino Fraga Hospital through, as a space for the propagation of medical knowledge, and, finally, the work of doctor Joana D'Arc Morais da Silveira Frade, one of the first infectious disease professionals in Paraíba working since 1989. With the diagnosis of the first cases of HIV infection and the development of AIDS in Paraíba from 1985 onwards, the a strong medical action in order to educate the population to protect themselves from contagion, disseminating through speeches guided by medical knowledge in the field of sexual education outside schools, in the adoption of the use of condoms during sex, at the same time as trying to understand what the virus was and the disease that was born marked by social stigmas. This research can be configured as a contribution to the Postgraduate Program in Education (PPGEd) at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, since these medical-educational discourses would be included in this range of options offered by the aforementioned line of research. , since these were educational practices of a nonschool nature. I use as historical sources the news published in newspapers circulating in Paraíba at the time, namely, A União, Correio da Paraíba, O Momento, O Norte, Diário da Borborema and Jornal da Paraíba, in addition to 4 (four) interviews granted by doctor Joana D'Arc Morais da Silveira Frade. Methodologically, I relied on Michel Foucault (2014) to operate discourse analysis, where discourse is nothing more than a game of writing, in the first case, reading, in the second, exchange, in the third. When I came across these speeches produced and published in the newspapers in Paraíba that circulated during the period proposed by this research, as well as in the 4 (four) interviews I carried out with the doctor Mrs. Joana D'Arc Morais da Silveira Frade, when putting the I read these writings. This association culminated in the exchange, with the dialogue between what I read and what I understand. At that moment, the discourse is canceled and another discourse is created in the order of the signifier, that is, in the way we understand and elaborate. That's what I did with the sources: readings of “truths”, to construct other “truths”. To this end, inspired by the ways of making history, made possible by Cultural History, we resorted to the concepts and contributions of some authors who will be essential in this research: biopolitics by Michel Foucault (2008; 1999), sensibilities from Sandra Pesavento (2007), disease according to Jacques Le Goff (1985), stigma according to Erving Goffman (2013), among others that helped us to provide a better theoretical foundation. It is concluded that even though a strong investment has been made in terms of health education, body care, sexual protection and the defense of life as a mechanism of biopolitics, these discourses guided by knowledge doctor, ended up accentuating stigmas, pejorative marks on people's bodies and spaces dedicated to fighting the virus and disease.
