BRAS, José Gregório Viegas. Hygiene and the government of souls: the awakening of a new relationship . Rev. Lusófona de Educação [online]. 2008, n.12, pp.113-138. ISSN 1645-7250.

Hygiene initiated a new process of a psychological emphasis. Hygiene invaded society and drugs became part of the living habits and introduced the duty of health, leading each person to take care of one’s self. Hygiene is nothing more than a knowledge that has allowed a new salvation, a new exercise of regulation and surveillance. It’s a knowledge that has structured society, transforming the population and each one in particular. This changing process has required from all of us a search of improvement from a new matrix, a new imaginary. A new mental world was created, new ways of thinking, feeling and acting were introduced in people’s lives, and for this very reason we can say that a new soul was raised. From this new knowledge (which becomes power), each one questioned himself (thought) and built differently. In this sense, hygiene also is “psi” knowledge.
