Georges Canguilhem (1904-1995), a French philosopher, has a vast intellectual production whose relevance goes through different fields of knowledge. Although the variety of subjects addressed by the author, it seems that virtually one topic prevails in his discourse – when it concerns his thought in Brazil – regarding the discussion about his proposition, The Normal and the Pathological. Such phenomenon is related to the processes of reception and circulation of his ideas, characterized by the setting field of Brazilian Collective Health. By the means of literature review and interviews with the leading Brazilian intellectuals in this set, I pursued investigating and conceiving a part of the history of its reception and circulation in the country in order to comprehend the movement that reached the normal and the pathological statement as a major speech. Simultaneously, this narrative conceiving enabled me to disclose literature from external fields and groups other than health’s. Considering some particular historical and social events, the chosen period of analysis covers the early 1970s to late 1990s. In fact, Georges Canguilhem’s literature in Brazil, although it is mainly studied in the field of Health, is not univocal and homogenous, it is beyond the normal and the pathological. Thus, I present five aspects that characterizes this process and enables comprehending the scope and the uniqueness of its circulation in Brazil: a) History of Sciences in the first half of 1970s; b) the public health field (that was later epistemologically set up as Collective Health) as from 1975; c) the fields of Psychology, Psychiatry and Psychoanalysis as from the late 1970; d) the epistemological history presented by Roberto Machado in early 1980s; e) the contemporary reading undertaken between the late 1990s and the late 2000s.
