| Summary: | The present study offers an approach to different professions in history starting in the Classic Ancient times and reaching our present time. It goes from the beginning of the classical concept of what a liberal profession was, until the latter sociology, which has introduced essential modifications in the established cannons about present professions. With this major premise in mind, we try to analyse nursing from the former consideration as «a simple occupation or work» -years ago- to the first part of XX century when it started to be considered as «a profession». Today, when nursing has obtained more autonomy and we know better its history, we would like to compare the different analyses various authors have done. We would also like to see if it could be considered a «Consolidated profession», bearing in mind the way nursing has behaved in its different stages of transformation. |
