Consideration on the fiftieth anniversary of the publication of an ambitious endeavor: El niño en la cultura española. That it does not fall into oblivion

Abstract

In the year 2010, 50 years will have passed since the publication in the press of the Hospital Workshops of Alcala de Henares of the extensive book- in four volumes, written by the Sevillian pediatrician Juan Luis Morales González, entitled: El Niño En La Cultura Española ante La Medicina y otras Ciencias; La Historia, Las Letras, Las Artes y Las Costumbres). [The Child in the Spanish Culture in view of Medicine and other Sciences; History, Literature, Arts and Customs].
It seems to be pertinent to commemorate this anniversary, describing its characteristics, and indicating its characteristics, making a critical context evaluation and finally, stressing its enormous importance for the Spanish pediatric historiography.
