J.-M. Lahy et ses archives

J.-M. Lahy et ses archives : retour à Sainte-Anne


Journée d'étude


Pavillon de l'Horloge, 1er étage, salle F,
Centre Hospitalier Sainte-Anne - 1 rue Cabanis
Paris, France (75014)

jeudi 15 novembre 2018

À partir de la présentation et de l’exploitation des archives de J.-M. Lahy (1872-1943) déposées au musée d’Histoire de la Psychiatrie et des Neurosciences du Centre hospitalier Sainte-Anne à Paris, ce colloque tente de rendre compte de qui a été J.-M. Lahy : sa carrière, ses engagements, son œuvre. En appui sur la vie scientifique des laboratoires qu’il a animé, ce colloque permet de préciser le rôle novateur qu’il a joué dans le développement de la psychotechnique dont il a été l’un des créateurs dans la première partie du XXe siècle. L’objectif est de mieux comprendre son approche de la femme et de l’homme au travail pour mieux saisir et discuter son apport à l’installation et au développement de la psychologie du travail et de l’orientation et plus généralement de la psychologie en France.

Les collections en santé mentale

Mind and Matter: Sharing and Caring for Collections and Colleagues 

Conference


Wednesday 7th of November 2018

West Yorkshire History Centre, Wakefield


The Mind and Matter: Sharing and Caring for Collections and Colleagues conference will bring together historians and professionals from across the archive/heritage sector to share their experience of working with mental health and sensitive collections. 

As archivists, collection managers, conservators and engagement staff we are trained to be sensitive, mindful and law-abiding when providing access to difficult and upsetting collections. We are very aware of the direct emotional impact that archival material can have on our visitors but the impact on professional staff who work with these collections can be overlooked.

This conference will explore, through showcasing a number of innovative public engagement projects, how access to mental health and other sensitive collections can be enabled in new and different ways for new audiences, but will also consider the mental health and wellbeing of staff who work with these collections to ensure their care and accessibility.

Case studies covering these themes from across the profession will be explored and include: the Norfolk Change Minds project, conservation of the Broadmoor collections, asylum photography and ethical issues surrounding the re-use of historical medical photographs, the University of Cambridge’s Darwin Correspondence Project, and more.

Who is it for?
The conference will be relevant for archivists, collection managers, conservators, archives engagement staff, and academics who are responsible for and make access available to mental health and other sensitive collections.

Is lunch provided?
Yes. Tea, coffee and lunch are included in the price of the ticket. Please contact us with any special dietary requirements so that we can cater for these appropriately.

To book
Please go to the Eventbrite page which is available at https://mindandmatter.eventbrite.co.uk. Tickets are £30 including lunch and refreshments. The West Yorkshire History Centre is located directly next to Wakefield Kirkgate train station, and a 10-minute walk/short taxi ride from Wakefield Westgate station.

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us.

Une histoire du tabac dans l'empire russe

Smoking under the Tsars. A History of Tobacco in Imperial Russia



Tricia Starks

Cornell University Press
Septembre 2018
ISBN-13 9781501722059


Approaching tobacco from the perspective of users, producers, and objectors, Smoking under the Tsars provides an unparalleled view of Russia’s early adoption of smoking. Tricia Starks introduces us to the addictive, nicotine-soaked Russian version of the cigarette—the papirosa—and the sensory, medical, social, cultural, and gendered consequences of this unique style of tobacco use.

Starting with the papirosa’s introduction in the nineteenth century and its foundation as a cultural and imperial construct, Starks situates the cigarette’s emergence as a mass-use product of revolutionary potential. She discusses the papirosa as a moral and medical problem, tracks the ways in which it was marketed as a liberating object, and concludes that it has become a point of increasing conflict for users, reformers, and purveyors.

The heavily illustrated Smoking under the Tsars taps into bountiful material in newspapers, industry publications, etiquette manuals, propaganda posters, popular literature, memoirs, cartoons, poetry, and advertising. Starks frames her history within the latest scholarship in imperial and early Soviet history and public health, anthropology and addiction studies. The result is an ambitious social and cultural exploration of the interaction of institutions, ideas, practice, policy, consumption, identity, and the body. Starks has reconstructed how Russian smokers experienced, understood, and presented their habit in all its biological, psychological, social, and sensory inflections, providing the reader with incredible images and a unique application of anthropology and sensory analysis to the experience of tobacco dependency.

Médicaments, commerce et empire

Drugs, Trade & Empire 1650-1950

Symposium

Friday, 9th November 2018

Venue: Apothecaries’ Hall, Black Friars Lane, London EC4V 6EJ

Cost: £30 students/ members £40/non members £50


As the British Empire grew, it offered markets for the British pharmaceutical industry to explore and exploit. Medicines were developed, promoted and traded to capitalise on relationships with British colonies. Many were based on raw drugs that had themselves been imported from the colonies. There was also movement of knowledge, people and practices across the world. But what patterns did this movement take? How did relationships between Britain and its colonies play out pharmaceutically? And what was their legacy? These and other issues will be explored in this one day symposium.

Philosophie de la folie

Philosophie de la folie: Réflexion biographique d’un mélancolique sur la folie et son traitement moral

James Frame

Nouvelle traduction D. F. Allen, M.-H. Brunel, F. Hercouët, Ch. Tanguy 
Paris: Epel, 2018

« Une nuit, après des semaines de souffrances épouvantables, désespéré, une horrible pulsion me saisit, m’ordonnant de détruire celle qui, par-dessus tous les êtres vivants, méritait le plus mon amour. Je m’enterrai sous les draps et luttai contre cette pulsion démoniaque jusqu’à ce que le lit se mette à trembler. Mais elle gagnait toujours en force. C’était incontrôlable. J’ai fermé les yeux et baissé la tête, par peur de la voir, et je me suis précipité hors de la maison. Pieds nus et sans vêtements, excepté une chemise de nuit, j’ai couru dans les rues jusqu’au commissariat de police et je les ai implorés de m’enfermer. »

Et ce fut au Glasgow Royal Asylum for Lunatics at Gartnavel, vu par lui comme un « baraquement pour banditi », que James Frame, l’estomac habité par un esprit malveillant, écrivit ce traité de la folie. Un classique de la psychothérapie institutionnelle, notamment chez les Anglo-Saxons, traduit de l’anglais par D. F. Allen, M.-H. Brunel, F. Hercouët, Ch. Tanguy.

Les histoires globales de la psychiatrie

Global Histories of Psychiatry

Workshop


November 7, 2018 to November 8, 2018
Netherlands

The workshop "Global Histories of Psychiatry" to be held on 07/08 November 2018 in Groningen, The Netherlands, is part of the projects ‘Experiences of Modernity’ and ‘Psychiatry: Global Histories in the 19th and 20th Century’ funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) and led by Prof. Dr. Hubertus Büschel, University of Groningen.

The workshop defines psychiatry as a lens for fundamental social, cultural and political phenomena in societies within the Global South. In the broad fields of psychiatry, psychology and psycho analysis, through its forms of diagnoses, treatment and epistemic cultures we can trace processes of social inclusion as well as exclusion. Otherness and racism are essential in the psychiatric encounters and negotiations of normative psychiatric frameworks in areas of the Global South. The workshop seeks to address fundamental problems of provincializing and decentering psychiatric discourses and practices as well as the silencing of patients.

The following elements are seen as central in papers being admitted for the workshop:
  • Global negotiations of ‘experiences’ which were seen as causing mental illnesses and informing the diagnoses and treatment.
  • The ‘experiences’ of so called ‘traumatic modernization’ following colonialism and development and their effects on the human mind in anthropological, psychological and psychiatric fields of ‘knowledge’ travelling between Europe and areas of the Global South. 
  • Examining historical notions that European psychiatric ‘civilization-sicknesses’ and their accompanying therapies can be studied through knowledge about the mental conditions of Non Western people. 
  • 'Histories of entanglement' of Western/Non-Western psychiatric discourses. 
  • Local perspectives and ‘experiences’ of globally driven psychiatric diagnoses and treatment

Furthermore, the workshop is also open to reflections regarding the practice and historiography of the subject. This includes the introduction of new empirical, theoretical and methodological approaches for the field of the global history of psychiatry, psychology and psychoanalysis in Colonial and Postcolonial times. Expanding upon existing research, the conference will focus on quasi-humanitarian, ‘reform’-psychiatric approaches in tropical and subtropical areas in the 19th and 20th centuries as well as on the perceptions and ‘experiences’ of all people involved, whenever possible. It will also be an inquiry into the global circulation and ‘translation’ of anthropological and psychiatric knowledge. The conference intends to show not only how normative definitions of ‘modernity’ or other factors seen to cause mental illness underwent questioning, local negotiation and pluralization throughout the time period under investigation, but also how prominent stereotypes, ‘racial othering’, social inclusion and exclusion and, last but not least, physical and psychic violence played important roles in these processes.
