Marañón, Spanish medicine, 20th century, present medicineAbstract
Marañón’s work, as a whole, is truly complex. After a preliminary, partial reading, the questions that arise are numerous and varied. The aim of this article is to analyse some of the wealth of the medical facets of these works by following some of the threads which are repeated in the literature on the author. His medical works, within the context of western medicine of the time, are still analysed from a perspective of a series of clichés. Actually from our point of view, his work is the result of a peculiar construction, based on both medical practice and personal theoretical principles which led to a model of medicine similar to that of the great reformers within the framework which Laín Entralgo has termed “present medicine”.
