Denunciation or dissimulation? Medical error in Antiquity and the Middle Ages
Greece, Rome, Egypt, Near-East
Mediator, Depakine, Thalidomides, contaminated blood, breast implants... health scandals over the past fifty years have regularly focused general attention on the problem of medical risk. They have raised many questions, abundantly relayed by the different media, showing us how crucial and complex the question of medical error is: where did the error come from? But before becoming a scandal, medical error has also been an inherent risk in the practice of medicine, since its very beginning. A mistake in diagnosis, prognosis or therapy, no matter how small, can have disastrous consequences for the doctor and the patient if not detected and corrected. Far from the huge media coverage of current health scandals, what is the status of medical error in ancient medicines and what are its issues?

Study days - Epistemology and methodology
Reconstruction, récit, fiction ?
Les questions de méthodologie sont souvent considérés comme arides et ne suscitent que rarement l’enthousiasme, mais elles sont un élément sine qua non de la recherche scientifique et le manque de conscience méthodologique est une tare pour toute science. Pour la recherche historique, l’interrogation méthodologique est par essence interdisciplinaire et doit porter aussi bien sur les objets d’étude et les modalités de leur construction que sur la nature linguistique des outils mobilisés pour les aborder et les disséquer. Depuis le linguistic turn, les réflexions post-modernes sur le statut de la parole historienne et les analyses de Foucault sur l’« ordre du discours », l’horizon d’une telle interrogation est donc toujours nécessairement le langage et la nature textuelle de la réalité abordée par les sciences historiques.
