Introduction. This study inquiries the production of Spanish documents published throughout the 19th century, focused on pedagogical considerations on the teaching and learning of Medicine and its specialties, and which are not textbooks or manuals specific of Medicine. Materials and methods. Retrospective diachronic study of documentary analysis using a purposive sample of titles of documents related to the teaching-learning of Medicine in Spain, retrieved after a search in the CISNE-UCM database with the keyword sequence: Teaching and Medicine. From: 1800 to 1900. Results. Thirty-three documents were retrieved. The list of titles exposed as ordinances, memoirs, inaugural lectures, essays, reform proposals, guidelines, reflections and orientations is ample. Some titles are revealed as being of singular relevance; for example: the Sánchez Toca’s speech, the essays of Salvá and Campillo, the meticulous general or numbered instructions of Guerra’s book, which can be considered as qualified pioneering contributions of a Spanish medical pedagogy. Conclusions. All these documents have a common denominator: the improvement of the teaching of Medicine. The production of documents both in quality and quantity would dispel the belief of the low Spanish concern for medical education with modern criteria.
