Resumo

This paper aims at analyzing how Hebert's naturist ideas were received and assimilated in Brazil based on the perusal of sources such as Azevedo (1915, 1920, 1931), Miranda (1945) as well as some broadsheets and periodicals, for example Correio da ManhA, O Paiz, Gazeta de Noticias, and Fon-Fon! (1913-1928). Furthermore, it investigates by what means Hebert's conception of nature integrated the mindset of Brazilian sanitarians in the first half of the twentieth century. Evidence suggests that there must have been some intertwinement of points of view that brought together Hebert's Natural Method and the French Naturist Perspective at the time of the arrival of the latter in Brazil. Hebert's thoughts on the concept of Nature reached Brazil early in the 1910s, and were incorporated in the shaping of a new approach to therapeutic treatments focused on preserving the patient's welfare. As a result, this study has enabled us to properly understand the reception of Hebert's works in Brazil, and come to terms with the historical connection between French gymnastic practices based on the Natural Method and their subsequent acclimatized Brazilian variants.
