Pinel was one of the first to treat the insane humanely striking the chains from the lunatics at the Bicetre Hospital and implementing his "traitement moral" a compassionate form of psychiatric therapy that identified insanity with illness rather than moral perversity or demonic possession. In his Traite Pinel replaced the theorizing and speculation characteristic of earlier works on mental illness with his own practical observations of the Bicetre's mental patients whose behavior could now be observed undistorted by cruel treatment. He retained the old classifications of mental illness but distinguished mania from delirium and recognized the relationships between periodic mania melancholy and hypochondria. He recognized emotional disorders to be the main cause of intellectual dysfunction but also took into account heredity predisposition and hypersensitivity and attempted to find relationships between insanity and cranial deformity. Pinel founded the Salpetriere's famous school of psychiatry and trained a generation of psychiatrists the most important of whom was Esquirol. Norman 1701. Hunter & Macalpine pp. 602-10.

L'ouvrage ouvre sur l'ex-dono manuscrit du père, signé à Paris et daté du 20 mai 1893 : "Ce volume est réservé à mon fils Galien. Souvenir affectueux de son père". Plusieurs portraits photographiques de l'auteur en médaillon apparaissent dans le recueil : au début de l'ouvrage, un cliché au format carte de visite [58 x 98 mm] représente Mingaud à l'âge de 75 ans ; sur un autre cliché, plus petit [20 x 30 mm], qui apparait à plusieurs reprises, il a à peu près le même âge ; un troisième cliché [55 x 65 mm] le représente cette fois-ci plus jeune, âgé de 46 ans. Quelques pièces portent le cachet de l'auteur (Mingaud. Conférencier scientifique. Paris) et certaines sont enrichies de notes manuscrites. Philippe Mingaud, pharmacien de première classe de l'École supérieure de Montpellier, fonda en 1844 une pharmacie normale et un cabinet d'histoire naturelle à Saint-Jean-du-Gard, dans les Cévennes. Dans les alentours, il fit la découverte d'importantes mines métallifères de gisements minéraux. Il s'installa à Paris en 1858 et fit don de sa collection au musée de Nîmes. Son fils, Galien-Philippe, s'occupa de minéralogie à ses côtés.

"Pinel's psychiatric work effectively transformed the prison for the insane into a hospital. He did not merely initiate better treatment for the mentally ill however but rather concerned himself with establishing psychiatry as a discrete branch of medicine" DSB. "Pinel was among the first to treat the insane humanely; he dispensed with chains and placed his patients under the care of specially selected physicians" Garrison-Morton.</p>. A LANDMARK WORK ON PSYCHIATRY. <p>First edition of a landmark work on the treatment of the insane and mentally ill. It presented the textual foundation of psychiatry stands as the first great publication of the nineteenth century in clinical medicine and at the same time as one of the paradigmatic expressions of the medical and scientific revolution that was taking place in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. In 1793 Pinel newly appointed physician at the Bicêtre Hospital the Paris asylum for men ordered the chains and shackles removed from 49 patients an event commemorated at the time in paintings and popular prints in order to try his new more humane methods of treatment. He did the same for the female inmates of Salpêtrière when he became the director there in 1794. "Pinel's psychiatric work effectively transformed the prison for the insane into a hospital. He did not merely initiate better treatment for the mentally ill however but rather concerned himself with establishing psychiatry as a discrete branch of medicine . Pinel's classification of mental diseases retained the old divisions of such illnesses as manic melancholic demented and idiotic. He presented these classes with a disclaimer-it was necessary to retain them 'for the time being' since medicine was not advanced enough for subtler distinctions as late as 1812. He nevertheless made finer distinctions isolating mania from delirium and pointing out that in this state the intellectual functions might be intact and in his description of idiocy citing stupor the first stage of some types of mental disease. Pinel recognized the relationship between periodic mania and melancholy and hypochondria and stressed the danger of suicide by the melancholic patient. He also mentioned the possibility of altruistic homicide. In establishing the cause of mental illness Pinel was wary of 'metaphysical discussions or certain ideological ramblings' and he categorically rejected the notion of demonic possession or sorcery. Faithful to the doctrines of Locke and Condillac he considered emotional disorders to be the primary factor in precipitating intellectual dysfunctions; he also took into account heredity morbid predisposition and what he called individual sensitivity. Pinel's psychiatric therapeutics his 'traitement morale' represented the first attempt at individual psychotherapy. His treatment was marked by gentleness understanding and goodwill. He was opposed to violent methods-although he did not hesitate to employ the straitjacket or force-feeding when necessary. He recommended close medical attendance during convalescence and he emphasized the need of hygiene physical exercise and a program of purposeful work for the patient. A number of Pinel's therapeutic procedures including ergotherapy and the placement of the patient in a family group anticipate modern psychiatric care" DSB. "Pinel was among the first to treat the insane humanely; he dispensed with chains and placed his patients under the care of specially selected physicians" Garrison-Morton.</p> <br /> <p>"Pinel was born in the rolling hills of Jonquières France. He was the son and nephew of physicians. After receiving a degree from the faculty of medicine in Toulouse he studied an additional four years at the Faculty of Medicine of Montpellier. He arrived in Paris in 1778. Pinel did much to establish psychiatry formally as a separate branch of medicine. He made notable contributions to the classification of mental disorders and has been described by some as 'the father of modern psychiatry'. Pinel was also one of the first clinician who believed that medical truth was derived from clinical experience. Pinel considered migrating to America. In 1784 he became editor of the not very prestigious medical journal the Gazette de santé a four-page weekly. He was also known among natural scientists as a regular contributor to the Journal de physique. He studied mathematics translated medical works into French and undertook botanical expeditions.</p> <br /> <p>"At about this time he began to develop an intense interest in the study of mental illness. The incentive was a personal one. A friend had developed a 'nervous melancholy' that had 'degenerated into mania' and resulted in suicide. What Pinel regarded as an unnecessary tragedy due to gross mismanagement seems to have haunted him. It led him to seek employment at one of the best-known private sanatoria for the treatment of insanity in Paris. He remained there for five years prior to the Revolution gathering observations on insanity and beginning to formulate<br /> his views on its nature and treatment. Pinel was an Ideologue a disciple of the abbé de Condillac. He was also a clinician who believed that medical truth was derived from clinical experience. Hippocrates was his model. During the 1780s Pinel was invited to join the salon of Madame Helvétius. He was in sympathy with the French Revolution. After the revolution friends he had met at Madame Helvétius' salon came to power. In August 1793 Pinel was appointed 'physician of the infirmaries' at Bicêtre Hospital. At the time it housed about four thousand imprisoned men-criminals petty offenders syphilitics pensioners and about two hundred mental patients. Pinel's patrons hoped that his appointment would lead to therapeutic initiatives. </p> <br /> <p>"Pinel rejected the prevailing popular notion that mental illness was caused by demonic possession. He stated that mental disorders could be caused by a variety of factors including psychological or social stress congenital conditions or physiological injury psychological damage physical conditions and heredity. He observed and documented the subtleties and nuances of human experience and emotion. He identified predisposing psychosocial factors of mental ill such as an unhappy love affair domestic grief devotion to a cause carried to the point of fanaticism religious fears the events of the revolution violent and unhappy passions exalted ambitions of glory financial reverses religious ecstasy and outbursts of patriotic fervor. He noted that a state of love could turn to fury and desperation can cause mania or 'mental alienation'. He also spoke of avarice pride friendship bigotry and vanity.</p> <br /> <p>"Pinel proposed a new nonviolent approach to the care of mental patients came to be called moral treatment in the sense of social and psychological factors. He strongly argued for the humane treatment of mental patients including a friendly interaction between doctor and patient. His treatment was marked by gentleness understanding and goodwill. He was opposed to violent methods - although he did not hesitate to employ the straitjacket or force-feeding when necessary. Pinel expressed warm feelings and respect for his patients: 'I cannot but give enthusiastic witness to their moral qualities. Never except in romances have I seen spouses more worthy to be cherished more tender fathers passionate lovers purer or more magnanimous patriots than I have seen in hospitals for the insane'.</p> <br /> <p>"Pinel visited each patient often several times a day. He engaged them in lengthy conversations and took careful notes. He recommended close medical attendance during convalescence and he emphasized the need of hygiene physical exercise and a program of purposeful productive work for mental patients. He further contributed to the development of psychiatry through his establishment of the practice of maintenance and preservation of detailed case histories for the purpose of treatment and research. Pinel also made the introduction of hospital treatment doctor's rounds medical procedures unchained the insane. Pinel petitioned to the Revolutionary Committee for permission to remove the chains from some of the patients as an experiment and to allow them to exercise in the open air. When these steps proved to be effective he was able to change the conditions at the hospital and discontinue the customary methods of treatment which included bloodletting purging and physical abuse. In 1798 Philippe Pinel cut chains from the limbs of patients called 'madmen' at the Bicêtre Hospital a Parisian insane asylum emphasized the need of hygiene physical exercise and a program of purposeful productive work .</p> <br /> <p>"Soon after his appointment to Hôspital Bicêtre Pinel became interested in the seventh ward where 200 mentally ill men were housed. He asked for a report on these inmates. A few days later he received a table with comments from the 'governor' Jean-Baptiste Pussin 1745-1811. In the 1770s Pussin had been successfully treated for scrofula at Bicêtre; and following a familiar pattern he was eventually recruited along with his wife Marguerite Jubline on to the staff of the hospice. While at Bicêtre Pinel did away with bleeding purging and blistering in favor of a therapy that involved close contact with and careful observation of patients. Pinel visited each patient often several times a day and took careful notes over two years. He engaged them in lengthy conversations. His objective was to assemble a detailed case history and a natural history of the patient's illness.</p> <br /> <p>"In 1795 Pinel became chief physician of the Hospice de la Salpêtrière a post that he retained for the rest of his life. The Salpêtrière was at the time like a large village with seven thousand elderly indigent and ailing women an entrenched bureaucracy a teeming market and huge infirmaries. Pinel missed Pussin and in 1802 secured his transfer to the Salpêtrière. It has also been noted that a Catholic nursing order actually undertook most of the day-to-day care and understanding of the patients at Salpêtrière and there were sometimes power struggles between Pinel and the nurses. Pinel created an inoculation clinic in his service at the Salpêtrière in 1799 and the first vaccination in Paris was given there in April 1800.</p> <br /> <p>"In 1794 Pinel made public his essay 'Memoir on Madness' recently called a fundamental text of modern psychiatry. In 1798 Pinel published an authoritative classification of diseases in his Nosographie philosophique ou méthode de l'analyse appliquée à la médecine. Pinel's classification of mental disorder simplified Cullen's 'neuroses' down to four basic types of mental disorder: melancholia mania insanity dementia and idiotism. Later editions added forms of 'partial insanity' where only that of feelings which seem to be affected rather than reasoning ability. In his book Traité médico-hilosophique sur l'aliénation mentale; ou la manie published in 1801 Pinel discusses his psychologically oriented approach.</p> <br /> <p>"The central and ubiquitous theme of Pinel's approach to etiology causation and treatment was 'moral' meaning the emotional or the psychological not ethical. He observed and documented the subtleties and nuances of human experience and behavior conceiving of people as social animals with imagination. Pinel noted for example that: 'being held in esteem having honor dignity wealth fame which though they may be factitious always distressing and rarely fully satisfied often give way to the overturning of reason'. He spoke of avarice pride friendship bigotry the desire for reputation for conquest and vanity. He noted that a state of love could turn to fury and desperation and that sudden severe reversals in life such as 'from the pleasure of success to an overwhelming idea of failure from a dignified state - or the belief that one occupies one - to a state of disgrace and being forgotten' can cause mania or 'mental alienation'. He identified other predisposing psychosocial factors such as an unhappy love affair domestic grief devotion to a cause carried to the point of fanaticism religious fears the events of the revolution violent and unhappy passions exalted ambitions of glory financial reverses religious ecstasy and outbursts of patriotic fervor" Sushma et al.</p> <br /> <p>En français dans le texte 203; Garrison-Morton 4922; Grolier Medicine 54; Heirs of Hippocrates 1070; Hunter & Macalpine pp. 602-610; Waller 7456; Wellcome IV p. 388; Norman 1701.

Norman Library III 1062. A judicious pairing of two fundamental texts. Philippe Pinel was the great reformer of mental medicine: he was among the first to treat the insane humanely removing their chains and placing them under the care of carefully selected physicians. Garrison considered his book one of the foremost medical classics which gave a major impetus to the humanitarian treatment of the mentally ill. ""Ce traité . procède à la description d'une entité clinique à la codification du traitement moral de la folie à l'amorce de la définition et de la glorification de l'institution asilaire à la consécration de la psychiatrie comme discipline médicale à part entière . Il ouvre la voie à Broussais qui dans De l'irritation et de la folie en 1828 donnera une analyse pénétrante trop injustement décriée du fait mental élémentaire et à Esquirol élève favori de Pinel qui . achèvera la fondation de la psychiatrie moderne"". Cf. Serge Wasersztrum in: En français dans le texte. Michel Foucault also revealed another aspect of the new asylum system: ""L'asile de l'âge positiviste tel qu'on fait gloire à Pinel de l'avoir fondé n'est pas un libre domaine d'observation de diagnostic et de thérapeutique; c'est un espace judiciaire où on est accusé jugé et condamné et dont on ne se libère que par la version de ce procès dans la profondeur psychologique c'est à dire par le repentir. La folie sera punie à l'asile même si elle est innocentée au-dehors. Elle est pour longtemps et jusqu'à nos jours au moins emprisonnée dans un monde moral"". Richard, Caille et Ravier hardcover

182715962Brussels 1827. 540 by 410mm. 21.25 by 16.25 inches. 6 volumes. Folio 6 letterpress half-titles and title-pages dedication leaf 42 pages of text 'Statistique de l'Europe' 7 lithographed index maps one of comparative heights with contemporary hand-colour in full and 382 numbered double-page maps by Henri Ode with contemporary hand-colour in outline some very occasional spotting; contemporary half tree calf drab paper boards some wear. The maps in the atlas make up the first map of the world on a uniform scale constructed as a modified conical projection and if assembled forming a globe with a diameter of 7.75 metres although only one such was known to have been made by the author himself and requiring a specially designed room. "Philippe Vandermaelen was born in Brussels in 1795 the son of a rich soap manufacturer. After his father's death in 1816 he devoted himself to maps and eleven years later produced this quite remarkable atlas. It was totally at his own expense and like so many innovations in the past it came about through the single-minded efforts of a man who could afford failure. It offered the largest picture of the earth's surface available in the nineteenth century thereby giving the lesser known areas such as Australia South Africa and the West coast of America all developing countries a much greater coverage than before. And perhaps most importantly of all it was the first atlas to be produced by lithography" Wardington Catalogue. cf. Koeman III Vdm 1; NMM 3:179; Philips Atlases 749 hardcover
