MIRANDA, Aristoteles Guilliod de  and  ABREU JUNIOR, José Maria de Castro. The first days of the School of Medicine and Surgery of Pará, Brazil: the protagonism of Antônio Magno e Silva.

Based on unseen documents, this article reconstructs the creation and initial days of the first School of Medicine of the Brazilian Amazon. Some facts and figures, whose participation in the event is traditionally minimized or hidden in conventional historiography, are retrieved in the text. Possible reasons for this oblivion are raised.

Keywords : History of Medicine; Medical Schools; Academic Institutions.
