Verantwoording In 1984 hebben de auteur van dit werk en zijn opleider, Dr. L.J. Endtz, naar aanleiding van een patiënt met een Brown- Séquard syndroom, opgeroepen door het zeldzame spinale sub- arachnoïdeale haematoom, het denkbeeld opgevat zich wat nader in dit syndroom te verdiepen 1. Enerzijds waren zij geïnteresseerd in de kliniek van het naar Brown-Séquard genoemde syndroom, anderzijds wilden zij wat meer te weten komen over de persoon die het syndroom voor het eerst heeft beschreven. Wat de kliniek van het Brown- Séquard syndroom betreft, hierover werd in 1986 op grond van uitgebreid literatuuronderzoek een overzichtsartikel gepubli­ ceerd 2. Over de persoon en het werk van Brown-Séquard bleek al het een en ander geschreven te zijn, met name in een drietal biografieën. In al deze biografieën ís echter, naar het ons bleek, onvoldoende aandacht besteed aan Brown-Séquards ideeën over de "dynamogénie" en "inhibition" en aan hun centrale plaats in zijn werk en vooral in zijn localisatietheorieën. Het plan werd opgevat vooral een studie van zijn werk te maken. Aangezien de begrippen "dynamogénie" en "inhibition" in de huidige neurofysiologische wetenschap nog steeds geldig zijn - wij noemen ze nu excitatie en inhibitie -, werd onderzocht of Brown-Séquards werk hierover een aantoonbare invloed heeft gehad in de ontwikkeling van de ideeën over de werking van het zenuwstelsel. Als verantwoording voor de daarbij gevolgde werkwijze dient een kort essay van Lester S. King, dat in 1984, het jaar waarin met dit werk is begonnen, verscheen 3. "The events are there". Maar soms moesten zij uit de mist der tijden tevoorschijn wor­ den gehaald. "We place the event into a context that does chan­ ge". Niet alleen aan de levensloop van de hoofdrolspeler maar ook aan die van zijn belangrijkste medespelers werd aandacht besteed, zij het dat aan de beschrijving van de levensloop van deze laatsten beperkingen moesten worden opgelegd. Het woord context is afgeleid van texere, weven: 'The historian by a process analogous to weaving places the event into relation with other events. Just as a weaver can choose the threads he wants to weave together, so the historian can choose the relationships he wants to emphasize". Die keuze wordt door XI vele factoren bepaald, King noemt onder andere "the spirit of the times or Zeitgeist, the dominant intellectual currents". Waar mogelijk werd getracht deze tijdgeest te doen spreken door de eigen woorden van de spelers aan te halen.

  • Pdf Maximiliano Rubín and the Context of Galdos's Medical Knowledge
    97 MAXIMILIANO RUBÍN AND THE CONTEXT OF GALDÓS’S MEDICAL KNOWLEDGE Michael W. Stannard The Medical Context Galdós’s interest in doctors, medicine and abnormal mental states is well known and has been the subject of many studies.1 More than 50 doctors populate the pages of his fiction prompting Granjel to refer to a “colegio médico galdosiano” (167). Almost invariably these physicians are portrayed in a favorable light (García Lisbona, 105, note 3), epitomized particularly in the combination of scientific outlook and humane concern of Galdosian characters such as Augusto Miquis, Teodoro Golfín and Moreno Rubio. References to medications abound in the novels 2 while the medical sciences appear in a significant sample of Galdós’s journalistic articles more often than any other science.3 It is somewhat surprising, therefore, that Galdós’s knowledge of the medical sciences of his time should remain incompletely explored. It is the purpose of this paper to draw attention to the depth of Galdós’s understanding of the medical advances of his day, which still remains under-appreciated. Galdós wrote at a time of revolutionary changes in medicine. Gradually replacing the older vitalistic and humoral conceptions of disease, positivist medicine emanating especially from France identified anatomical abnormalities associated with many diseases (Laín Entralgo 273-308). Microscopical studies by Virchow and others from the 1840s onwards identified the cellular basis of disease. From the 1860s Pasteur and Koch showed the role of bacteria in infection while Lister found practical applications in his antiseptic, and later, aseptic techniques that revolutionized the scope and safety of surgery.

  • Towards a History of Infective Endocarditis
    Medical History, 1996, 40: 25-54 Towards a History of Infective Endocarditis ALAIN CONTREPOIS* Infective endocarditis is a serious heart disease which is sometimes very difficult to diagnose and treat despite the progress made over the last few decades. The complex nature of the pathophysiological mechanisms involved in this disease is reflected in the countless number of scientific studies still being done on it.1 At the end of the eighteenth century and during the first half of the nineteenth century, the anatomo-clinical method facilitated the gradual establishment of correlations between a lesion discerned during autopsy and symptoms observed in the live patient. It then became a question of bringing together what were, until then, separate individual observations. The very term "endocarditis", referring to an individual tissue and an inflammatory process, goes back to early-nineteenth-century clinicians such as Broussais and Bouillaud, before the germ theory and the birth of bacteriology. However, it was very difficult for doctors of that period to define endocarditis in a simple, unequivocal manner. There was not always a clear relationship between the ideas which late historians have supposed fed each other; the arguments were confusing, tortuous, circular, and dead-end. In his discussion of syphilis, Ludwik Fleck correctly pointed out that disease is a constructed, ever-changing phenomenon which constantly integrates new information and concepts.2 Thus, the term "endocarditis" continued to be used for a disease which underwent endless development throughout the nineteenth century. There was also modification of the aetiological links between anatomical abnormalities, clinical symptoms and observations during autopsy.

  • BY SIR EDWARD SHARPEY-SCHAFER, F.R.S. Other
    HISTORY OF THE PHYSIOLOGICAL SOCIETY, I876-I926 BY SIR EDWARD SHARPEY-SCHAFER, F.R.S. (Professor of Physiology in the University of Edinburgh.) IN the middle part of the nineteenth century Great Britain was far behind France and Germany in the development of Physiology. We had no pure physiologists and it was considered that any surgeon or physician was competent to teach the science. Indeed, long after this, the subject was in many medical schools left in the hands of a member of the hospital staff, usually a young man, who carried on clinical teaching as well. Hence, during a period of time when other experimental sciences were rapidly progressing, Physiology in this country could show no names worthy to be mentioned with those of Magendie, Bernard, Muller, Helmholtz, or Ludwig, to mention but a few of the brilliant physiologists of France and Germany. In one place only- University College, London-was a lamp kept burning; the lamp was that of William Sharpey. Although Sharpey had received a purely anatomical training, he had manifested his physiological leaning by his investigations regarding the action of cilia, and he early familiarised himself with the microscopic appearances of, and changes in, living cells, as well as with the structure of animal tissues. This led to his having a wider outlook than that of the pure anatomist of that day, and it was a happy event for the future of Physiology in England that Sharpey was invited to occupy the newly instituted chair of General Anatomy and Physiology at University College, London, in 1836.

  • The Clinician, Germs and Infectious Diseases: the Example of Charles Bouchard in Paris
    Medical History, 2002, 46: 197-220 The Clinician, Germs and Infectious Diseases: The Example of Charles Bouchard in Paris ALAIN CONTREPOIS* The space of a few decades, at the end of the nineteenth and the beginning of the twentieth century, saw the establishment in France of "la pathologie infectieuse", a new discipline or medical speciality that gave rise to new clinical and laboratory practices and concepts.' Historical studies on this subject have focused, above all, on the theoretical aspects and have tended to attribute a privileged role to Louis Pasteur. The majority of French historians have simply analysed the "Pasteurization" of French medicine and implicitly assumed the validity of this analysis for western medicine and the overall importance of the French hygienist movement, the role of the "go-betweens" of Pasteurism's influence on Pasteurian "know-how" and "network".? In 1984, Bruno Latour broke with eulogistic historiography, but still maintained Pasteur's central role to the extent that he controlled the network that he had created, that is to say, the mediators between his laboratory, hygiene and the clinic.3 But little has been said about these clinicians.4 It seems that this way of viewing them, as mere importers of Pasteurian ideas, neglects the fact that these practitioners themselves did laboratory work, using approaches different from Pasteur's, whether they worked on etiology, made use of bacteriological tools and appropriated clinical bacteriology to their own interests, and raised their own questions, not necessarily those of Pasteur's laboratory, in relation to their experiences as practising doctors. * Dr Alain Contrepois, Centre de Recherche 2See, for example, Francois Dagognet, Medecine, Sciences, Sante et Societe (CERMES), Methodes et doctrines dans l'aeuvre de Pasteur, 182 Boulevard de la Villette, 75019 Paris, France.
