Abstract
The present paper explores the extraordinary life of cellist Jacqueline du Pré, her remarkable contribution to music, and her battle with multiple sclerosis (MS). Beyond her artistic impact, we discuss how her story influenced the creation of the Brazilian Multiple Sclerosis Association (Associação Brasileira de Esclerose Múltipla, ABEM, in Portuguese) and its cultural significance in Brazil, particularly through the play Duet for One, by Tom Kempinski. The study reflects on the role of art as a powerful tool to raise awareness and contribute to the understanding of diseases.
本文探讨了大提琴家杰奎琳·杜普莱尔非凡的一生,她对音乐的卓越贡献,以及她与多发性硬化症(MS)的斗争。除了她的艺术影响之外,我们还讨论了她的故事如何影响巴西多发性硬化症协会(associa o Brasileira de Esclerose Múltipla, ABEM,葡萄牙语)的成立,以及该协会在巴西的文化意义,特别是通过汤姆·凯宾斯基的戏剧《一个人的双人舞》。这项研究反映了艺术作为提高认识和促进了解疾病的有力工具的作用。
期刊介绍:
Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria is the official journal of the Brazilian Academy of Neurology. The mission of the journal is to provide neurologists, specialists and researchers in Neurology and related fields with open access to original articles (clinical and translational research), editorials, reviews, historical papers, neuroimages and letters about published manuscripts. It also publishes the consensus and guidelines on Neurology, as well as educational and scientific material from the different scientific departments of the Brazilian Academy of Neurology.
The ultimate goals of the journal are to contribute to advance knowledge in the areas of Neurology and Neuroscience, and to provide valuable material for training and continuing education for neurologists and other health professionals working in the area. These goals might contribute to improving care for patients with neurological diseases. We aim to be the best Neuroscience journal in Latin America within the peer review system.
