          Abstract

          Resumo O texto trata de alguns aspectos da história da neurastenia e do advento do estresse, incluindo suas relações com o imaginário das doenças nervosas, entre o final do século XIX e as primeiras décadas do século XX. O objetivo principal é o de perceber as diferenças entre aquelas duas patologias, assim como as controvérsias por elas desencadeadas entre cientistas brasileiros e estrangeiros. A hipótese central é fruto de uma pesquisa mais ampla, na qual as doenças são consideradas não apenas como tendo uma história reveladora das maneiras de conceber as fragilidades e as potências do corpo, mas indicam, também, ambições ligadas à produtividade no trabalho e ao progresso social.

          Translated abstract

          Abstract The text deals with some aspects of the history of neurasthenia and the advent of stress, including its relations with the imaginary of nervous diseases, between the end of the 19th century and the first decades of the 20th century. The main objective is to understand the main differences between those two pathologies, as well as the controversies triggered by them between Brazilian and foreign scientists. The central hypothesis that runs throughout the text, the result of broader research, is that diseases not only have a history that reveals the ways of conceiving the weaknesses and strengths of the body, but also indicate ambitions linked to productivity in the field work and social progress.
