The background, the training, the personality, the educational choices and the publications of most of them give evidence of their will to contribute actively to the development and valuation of nursing as a discipline without naming it, by being inspired by foreign experiences well ahead of the french situation at the time. Good intentions to confront with the complex reality of the stakes and games of the numerous actors involved in those years realization.

Colin Fraser Brockington (1903-2004) and the revolution in nurse-education.

Colin Fraser Brockington was Professor of Social and Preventive Medicine at the University of Manchester from 1952 to 1965. During that time he developed the Diploma in Community Nursing, the first pre-registration training course for nurses at a British University. This paper traces Brockington's education and career and explores his commitment to university-based nursing education which appears to have stemmed from his desire to enhance and broaden the role of the health visitor. It also considers the implications of the innovative course at Manchester and evaluates the way in which it influenced the gradual movement of nursing education into the university sector throughout the UK.

The influence of Florence Nightingale's image on Liverpool nurses 1945-1995.

Images of Florence Nightingale have been crystallised over time so that an iconoclastic image is frequently presented. Using oral history as a research method, a convenience sample of Liverpool nurses, spanning the period 1945-1995 discussed how this image had a bearing on them as nurses and on their practice. It would appear that during their training, lectures were about Florence Nightingale as a person and students were expected to emulate her. The influence of the image led to a rigorous attention to detail in the work and their persona. Over time, this influence has diminnished through the many changes experienced in the delivery of healthcare. However, it is contended that if attention was paid to Nightingale's works rather than her image, there could have been a resurgence of interest which might have influenced practice.

Os dados foram coletados por meio das Atas do Diretório Acadêmico, da consulta aos periódicos da época e das entrevistas realizadas através da História Oral. As narrativas evidenciam que o Diretório Acadêmicocompartilhava dos mesmos propósitos da direção da Escola de Enfermagem, legitimando as regras por ela impostas edivulgando para a sociedade baiana o novo curso, no sentido de desconstruir os preconceitos e representações inerentes ao surgimento da profissão.
