[Neuropathology in France (19th-20th centuries). Semantic and institutional misadventures].
At the end of the 19th century (1880-1905), at a time when neuropathology (a science and a word which had just been created by Charcot) was triumphant, recognized, admired, neurology became institutionalized in its place, for the anatomical, physiological and clinical study of diseases of the nervous system. Gradually, emptied of its content, in favour of neurology, neuropathology then entered a period of semantic and institutional uncertainly which only ended with its second "true-false" institutionalization, starting in the 1950s, at the cost of its reduction to pathologic anatomy of the nervous system.
