Organization of the Emilio Mira y López and Alice Mira's personal archives

This work is dedicated to the ongoing organization and cataloguing of the personal shared archive of Emilio Mira y López (1896-1964) and Alice Galland de Mira (1916-2010), important contributors to the institutionalization and professionalization of psychology in Brazil. The very logic governing the constitution of a personal archive (i.e., documents that have been deemed important to preserve in a domestic, familial, and affective context) suggests that this is potentially relevant documentation for research and is one that relates to gender in the history of psychology as a discipline. Thus, such documentation is expected to provide new data on the activities of Instituto de Seleção Profissional (ISOP) and, in particular, on the trajectory of Emilio and Alice Mira y López.
