SUMMARY:

In Brazilian Hemeroteca´s collections and Faculties of Medicine productions, we reconstructed

the panorama of water consumption and distribution in Brazilian territory after the arrival of
the Portuguese Court with its institutional apparatus. We present the economic contribution of
imports and the predatory extractive strategy implementation in the States of Minas Gerais, Rio
de Janeiro and Bahia. We followed the development of water therapy in estâncias, where the
aim was to build civilizational centers, going through a process of discredit, understood as
Dandyism centers. Hydrotherapy, the most advanced medical technique at the time, analyzed
the change in body heat caused by the hot tropical climate and observed nervous disorders, from
which residents, subject to the climatization process, suffered greatly. We enunciate social
perspectives of gender and race in the shaping of a new selective and exclusionary modernity
that problematized foods, behaviors and temperaments in the shaping of a new woman,
suffering from Hysteria due to emotional shocks and excessive tropical heat. This investigative
wave of colonial occupation developed therapies and health processes that discriminated and
restricted access to the natural resource. Understanding the theoretical and practical production
of Doctors, in the formative transition of the discipline of Psychology, we follow practices in
institutions that highlight the Hydrotherapy studies contributions in Psychology and the
embryonic formation of the treatment of mental illnesses in places, sanatoriums, where the
Brazilian Holocaust occurred.
