| dc.description |
Cada vez más se acepta el interés de la enseñanza de las humanidades en las facultades de Medicina. Desde que se inició el primer curso de literatura y medicina en la Pennsylvania State University a principio de los años setenta, ha aumentado el número de facultades de Medicina de los Estados Unidos que han incluido un curso de tales características en sus planes de estudio. No obstante, muchos profesores aún dudan del interés de tales actividades y algunos no comprenden su interés para formar estudiantes de medicina. Argumentan que tales cursos no proporcionan ningún conocimiento relevante que no se haya adquirido ya por las materias científicas. Algunas evidencias empíricas, no obstante, desafían tales opiniones. Los cursos de literatura pueden proporcionar información adicional a los estudiantes que puede ser necesaria para comprender mejor algunos aspectos de la práctica médica. Por ejemplo, los aspectos psicológicos y sociológicos de la enfermedad y el papel de los médicos en el tratamiento holístico de ésta pude comprenderse mejor empleando obras literarias que con los libros de texto clásicos de la medicina. Algunas de aquellas son obras maestras de la descripción de las conductas humanas y la enfermedad es una parte frecuente de sus argumentos. En el presente artículo, se comenta el interés de la literatura para los estudiantes de Medicina y se presenta una sugerencia de los contenidos que un curso de tales características podría abarcar.<br>The interest of teaching humanities in medical schools is increasingly accepted. Since the first course on literature and medicine was started at the Pennsylvania State University in the early seventies, the number of US medical schools offering these courses has increased and now one third of them are including this topic in their curricula. However, many teachers still put in doubt its interest and some of them are unable to understand its usefulness for training medical students. They argue that these courses are not giving any important knowledge that was not already covered by the scientific approach. Some empirical evidences, however, defy such opinions. Literature courses may give to medical students additional information that is needed to understand better some aspects of medical practice. For instance, psychological and sociological aspects of illness and the role of physicians in the holistic treatment of disease may be better understood using literary works rather than classical medical textbooks. Some of the former are masterpieces of human behavior description and sickness is a frequent part of its plot. In the present article, the interest of literature for medical students is discussed and the syllabus of a proposal of a Literature and Medicine course is presented. |
