Abstract
Este trabajo nos aproxima al tratamiento dispensado a la medicina
por diversos autores del siglo XVIII. Con un enfoque interdisciplinar, se
exponen los análisis y comentarios que algunos literatos, ensayistas,
polemistas, médicos, traductores y filósofos dedicaron al tópico de la
medicina en el setecientos. Al efecto, se estudian las fuentes primarias, que
se complementan con estudios recientes. La conclusión principal del trabajo
pone el acento en el paralelismo entre el avance científico y el desarrollo del
lenguaje. A medida que aparecen nuevas realidades técnicas y científicas, el
lenguaje, especialmente el léxico, se actualiza en consecuencia.
This paper brings us closer to the treatment given to medicine by various Spanish authors of the 18th century. With an interdisciplinary approach, the paper presents the analyses and comments devoted to the topic of medicine by some writers, essayists, debaters, doctors, translators and philosophers in Age of Enlightment. To this end, primary sources are studied and complemented by recent studies. The main conclusion of the paper emphasizes the parallelism between scientific progress and language development. As new technical and scientific realities appear, language, especially the lexicon, is updated accordingly.
