- Title
Embriaguez e males da alma: entre a mania e a melancolia.
- Authors
Carvalho da Silva, Paulo José
- Abstract
This article examines the relationships established in the field of medicine of the soul between drunkenness and mental illness. The article shows how the ambivalent attitude toward wine, evident since antiquity and based on psychophysiological dynamics and treatments that appeal to the power of reason and will over the appetites, was replaced during the eighteenth century by the pathologic notion of alcohol abuse.
