“…En aquella secuencialidad que Bruner reconoció como la propiedad más relevante de las narrativas, se sostiene el interés que las mismas generan en el auditorio: la necesidad de resolver el desequilibrio que originó el relato, el deseo por conocer, lo que Moger (1982) denominó, el deseo como modus operandi, donde el relato-enigma, suscita el deseo por conocer y tracciona de los contenidos.…”

Artículo recibido el 30-09-2014 y aprobado el 28-11-2014 Julio -Diciembre de 2014 / ISSN 0121-3814 pp. 47 -59 ¿Qué historias contar sobre la emergencia de enfermedades?El valor de la narrativa en la enseñanza de las ciencias ResumenEn este trabajo abordamos los aportes del formato narrativo a la enseñanza de los contenidos vinculados a la salud y la enfermedad. En este sentido describimos las características de este formato y resaltamos los aportes que el mismo puede hacer al aprendizaje de contenidos científicos escolares, en particular, en este caso, los referidos a la emergencia de las enfermedades. Proponemos reflexionar respecto de qué historias es preciso contar en las clases de ciencias de manera tal de privilegiar aquellas centrales que facilitan la comprensión del mundo social y natural. Asumimos que los relatos posibilitan acceder a una mirada de conjunto de los fenómenos anclados en contextos ricos y complejos. Palabras clave:Narrativas. Contextualización. Mediación didáctica. Salud y enfermedad. AbstractThis study presents the contributions of the narrative format to the teaching of content related to health and disease. In this sense we describe the characteristics of this format and highlight its contributions in supporting science teaching and learning of different contents, in particular, those referring to the emergence of diseases. The researches intend to reflect regarding the kind of stories used in science classes, so that stories could be a vehicle through which experiences and events are communicated amongst people and could provide an understanding of the social and natural world. Hence, in this paper, we explore the potential role that narrative might have not only to communicate scientific ideas but also to generate knowledge and understanding of the phenomena anchored in rich and complex contexts.

As the nineteenth-century French literary tradition becomes increasingly focused on the project to know the body – to make it intelligible as a cultural sign and as a vehicle of consciousness and subjectivity – it progressively turns to medicine as an ally that can be enlisted to bolster its claims to a discourse of knowledge. This paper considers a late nineteenth-century narrative that regards the doctor's knowledge as a symptom of psychic distress pertaining to literature's difficult juncture with the body. Guy de Maupassant's "Une ruse" (1882) presents the case of an elderly doctor who consults with a young bride suffering from fatigue associated with newlywed bliss. The doctor's treatment takes the form of a framed narrative in which he tells the young woman that he once helped a patient dispose of her lover's body when he died in her bed. The narrative situation dramatizes literature's recruitment of the doctor to produce a narrative voice that will overcome the inert body's resistance to its project to record the subject's inner journey toward selfdom and consciousness. To the extent that Maupassant's narrative endows the doctor's inscribed story with meanings that exceeds its language, they make the gesture of storytelling a conspicuous sign of detachment between a mind, its language, and its desire. Here, the doctor becomes a cultural trope that embodies anxieties and nervousness pertaining to realism's declining command over the body's place in the representation of the real.
