Literature as a possible instrument for understanding medicine in society and as an instrument for training the doctor. Literature has enabled the great authors to recreate and imagine scenarios and scenes, illnesses, patients and medical professionals. In such a way that immersion in the reading of classical authors and many contemporary writers has ended up shaping a reality that is sometimes unimaginable, and sometimes comparable with everyday life.
