Foisil, Madeleine. - Un journal d'hygiène et de santé: le Journal de Jean Héroard, médecin de Louis XIII. [A Diary of hygiene and health: The Diary of Jean Héroard, Louis XIII's physician.] (PDF 3574 Ko) The Journal of Jean Héroard, physician of Louis XIII, has been known for more than a century. Substantial extracts were published in 1868 and attracted a certain amount of attention because of their extraordinarily rich documentation bearing on the childhood of the future king. the edition of 1989 makes available for the first time the complete text of this monumental opus of 11.000 manuscript pages written day by day with remarkable fastidiousness over the course of 27 years (1601-1628). It is the professionnal diary of a medical practitioner, containing his daily observations on the hygiene an health of his single patient, with particular emphasis upon preventive medicine; His notes on general hygiene - sleep, waking, pulse, temperature, excretory functions, diet, menu of each meal - occupy a large part of the text, more than three-quarters of the total (78 %) once the king had attained adulthood. Nevertheless, despite all the care and vigilance lavished upon him, the prince's health often gave cause for concern. As an infant he suffered from frequent skin disorders related no doubt to poor habits of personal cleanliness. As a child he had the measles and a full complement of ordinary minor afflictions - colds, headaches, digestive problems - but "his stomach was delicate", noted the doctor. Héroard was in constant attendance during the king's bouts of serious illness in 1617 and 1627; although Louis was not yet a valetudinarian, these crises reveal an irreversible deterioration of his health. For a portrait of an ailing king, for a description of his maladies and their treatment, Héroard's Journal is absolutely unique in the annals of medical literature. It now remains for members of the medical profession to analyze in depth the language and the content of Héroard's observations as well as his strenghts and weaknesses as a practitioner.

Lefebvre, Pierre. - Comment Anne d'Autriche devint femme, (25 janvier 1619) d'après le Journal d'Héroard et les relations des Ambassadeurs. [The making a woman of Anne of Austria (according to Héroard's Record and Ambassadors' correspondence).] (PDF 2891 Ko) The consummation of the marriage between Louis XIII and Anne of Austria on 25 January 1619 four years after the wedding ceremony, became an Affair of State. By order of the King, all the courts of Europe were advised. The enthusiastic manner with which the event was related by the Ambassadors'4 reports contrasted with the soberness of the entry in Héroard's Record.

Boucher, Maurice. - La maladie de Maurice Ravel. (PDF 3485 Ko) The 27 December 1937 died Maurice Ravel, at the age of 62 years. Which was the illness of the musician? To answer, to this question, read again, the description of Alajouanine which observed Maurice Ravel during several years. The symptoms of the patient were specially a chronic aphasia, with alexia and chronic apraxia which prevented him to play piano. Due to the apraxia and the agraphia he coudn't write a word or a note of music, but he could distinguish the exact note of a false note, by the listening a piece of music. The signs were those of a left lesion of the brain, and the musician kept a good esthetic sense and a good comprehension of the music because his right hemisphere was very probably intact. Maurice Ravel was operated by Clovis Vincent which found a ventricular hydrocephaly. Pour citer cet article Boucher, Maurice. - La maladie de Maurice Ravel.

Galérant, Germain. - Psychopathologie de Maupassant. [Maupassant's Psychopathology.] (PDF 3461 Ko) Under the pretext that Maupassant died from paralytic dementia, some people are ascribing to this disease a kind of morbid feeling throughout his work, even a long time before he had "bats in the belfrey", which is nonsense. In fact the writer being devoided of circular psychosis was also suffering from satyromania confining to priapism. In such a sexual disorder it occured that he became extremely fond of Sade's philosophy giving a sharp look to his writings and some private circumstances of his life when he was out of his wits.

Salf, Eric. - L'enfant à deux têtes de Poisley (1658). [The two-head child from Poisley.] (PDF 1990 Ko) The author who in the past has studied teratomorphology in the early 19th century French scientific community and more recently the christian registers in the department of the Eure, has found this unknown detailed anatomic description of a female thoracopagus double monster born at Poisley in April 1658. This act was written by François Legendre parish priest at Poisley and bachelor in theology at Paris University. Present at the birth and a few hours later during the necropsy of this human monster by two local surgeons, he showed more scientific curiosity and logical conclusion than they did. According to him, this monster with two heads, two brains but also two hearts not seen by the surgeons had also two souls! So he decided to practise two christenings and two burials. In April 1660 the mother gave birth to a normally conformed daughter. Pour citer cet article Salf, Eric. - L'enfant à deux têtes de Poisley (1658).

Dubarry, J.-Jacques. - Histoire de la création d'une station thermale: Rochefort. [The History of the Establishment of thermomineral water city: Rochefort, France.] (PDF 2667 Ko) Rochefort, a naval harbor, was founded by Colbert at the mouth of the Charente. This was a marshy region, without any drinking water. Under Naopléon III, in the park of the Maritime Hospital, an artesian well was drilled in the hope of finding some; this technique was new at the time. At a depth of 856 meters a rich source of water was found, but of a thermal mineral composition, which was put at the disposal of many patients at the hospital. This well was used until 1888 when it was accidentally locket up. All attempts to resume the use of it failed. Because of the economic recession that followed the closing of Rochefort as a naval harbor, the municipal authorities of the city decided to drill a new well on some land belonging to the municipality and located close to the Maritime Hospital. In 1953 thermal mineral water again flowed in the city. This was also the period when a chair of hydrology was founded at the Medical Faculty of the University of Bordeaux. The new hydrology professor, supported warmly by colleagues and receiving generous assistance, was placed in charge of the necessary studies for the exploitation of this potential natural wealth. These studies related to the determination of the chemical, biological and experimental aspects of that water as well as to their possible therapeutic use in the future spa. The professor was the director and coordinator of various research programs. Four years later, they led to the official confirmation by the Academie de Médecine of the value of the thermal water and to the construction of a spa facility that shortly became too small on account of the rapid growth of the new watering-place. In 1989, 7.000 patients had taken cures at the spa. Pour citer cet article Dubarry, J.-Jacques. - Histoire de la création d'une station thermale: Rochefort.

Olry, Régis. - Métaphores zoologiques au sein des ventricules latéraux du cerveau, ou l'imagination au service de la linguistique. [Zoological figures of speech in the lateral ventricles of the brain, or the imagination in attendance on the linguistics.] (PDF 1815 Ko) The anatomical nomenclature is sprinkled with figures of speech, witness to its never-ending dilemna: to protect its history, and to adapt itself to new descriptions. The hippocampus does not escape this rule: Julius Caesar Arantius (1530-1589) suggested this name for the curved elevation of the inferior cornu of the lateral ventricle. The subsequent synonyms give also proof of imagination: silkworm (Julius Caesar Arantius), Ammon's horn (René Jacques Croissant de Garengeot?), ram's horn (Jacques Bénigne Winslow), and the XXth century will wrongly extend the world “hippocampus” to neighbouring structures. Anyhow, the mythology was, and is always present around this part of the central nervous system which functions are as enigmatic as its baptism.
