title: [Public health literature: teaching of a new look in the health-illness process].
abstract: This paper presents the use of Brazilian literature in public health nursing courses at the University of São Paulo at Ribeirão Preto College of Nursing. The goal is a preliminary report about experiences that intend to keep the students in touch in order to wide their view of reality, in which relationships between the men and health-illness process are established in the complexity and singularity of human being (ill and life) in each place and time. In the first stage, this experience is based on New History conceptual framework (Ecolle des Annale), in the complexity's paradigm (MORIN) and circularity concept and sign's paradigm (GINZBURG).
