Les génies de la science. Charcot.
À la conquête du
cerveau.
n° 37,
novembre 2008 - janvier 2009
Jean-Claude Dupont
With Louis Pasteur and Claude Bernard,
Jean-Martin Charcot is one of the most brilliant figure
of biological sciences in the XIXth century. However, his
field of research is opposite to the theory of Pasteur
and to experimental physiology. Charcit’s revolution is
slow, it aims to preserve the old medical knowledge from
former physicians. The work of Charcot are built on the
anatomoclinnical method : when he was a physician, he
decided to study man and his limits. With his
contribution, rheumatology, internal medicine and the
diseases of aging patients come to light and make Charcot
famous, neurology gives him an international recognition
: Charcot describes many neurological entities such as
lateral amyotrophic sclerosis, Parkison disease,
epilepsy, cerebral localisations of motor actions… Before
him, the study of nervous diseases was only starting,
despite the work by alienists. With Charcot, this field
becomes more friendly. Charcot becomes the figure of the
educated physician in the XIXth century, as in the novels
by Zola, Maupassant or Tolstoï. Charcot is aware of this
and he contributes to it. Hysteria gives him a mixed
recognition : scientific, opening the path to the psychic
determinism of neurosis (Freud), but also in society,
with quarrels and polemics.

L’essor des neurosciences : France 1945-1975 / The
rise of Neuroscience in France (1945-1975)
Claude Debru, Jean Gaël Barbara,
Céline Cherici, dir.
Ed. Hermann, 2008
From the molecular level to cognition
and consciousness, brain sciences brought crucial ideas
in the understanding of man under various aspects. This
study focusing on the rise of neuroscience is based on
the French case in the international context. It
describes the paths to neuroscience since the Second
World War to the present state of knowledge. The authors,
neurobiologists commenting on their own works,
philosophers and historians of science, present the rise
of neuroscience in the “trente glorieuses” following the
war which laid the basis of this field. They describe the
difficulties and the promises of interdisciplinarity, the
evolving philosophical framework favouring a more
integrative perspective of the human brain, together with
a less reductionist approach of consciousness in man and
animals. Finally, they show how scientists organised
their community internationally confronting the dominant
oppositions between the political systems of the East and
the West.
