About the Book

English summary: Between 10 and 12% of adults and 3 to 10% of children in France suffer from migraines, but studies have shown that less that 60% of those who suffer from them acknowledge them as such. Esther Lardreau is a specialist on migraines and their treatment, and offers here a unique history of migraines and their ill-understood effects from Antiquity to the present day. French description: Touchant 10 a 12% des adultes et 3 a 10% des enfants, la migraine est quasiment devenue banale. Pourtant, une vaste enquete menee en France montre que 60% des migraineux ne sont pas conscients de l'etre, refusant de reconnaitre leur souffrance et incapables de lui donner un nom. Pourquoi, alors qu'existent desormais des unites de soins et des societes consacrees a la migraine, est-il aussi difficile de s'avouer migraineux? Ce livre examine les raisons historiques pour lesquelles le statut de patient migraineux ne va pas de soi. Si la plainte migraineuse semble avoir des longtemps existe, et si un terme designe les migraineux des le IIe siecle apres J.C., en revanche la migraine, elle, est un objet tardivement construit, qui n'a pas toujours ete pense comme une maladie a part entiere, ni meme comme une maladie. Davantage, medecins et malades se sont parfois accordes pour la considerer comme etant dans l'ordre des choses et sans interet. Mais si elle n'est rien qu'un fait divers medical, comment expliquer, alors, qu'elle a eu la puissance de convoquer tant de modeles explicatifs, de susciter des therapies aussi ingenieuses, de donner lieu a une si riche iconographie? C'est le recit de ce paradoxe entre une maladie qui ne parvient pas a se nommer, qui semble invisible (et quels signes assurent donc, en toute objectivite, au mari que son epouse ne ruse pas, ce soir, quand elle declare qu'elle a la migraine?) et une maladie qui produit tant de noms pour se raconter, tant d'images pour se montrer, qu'on lira dans cette biographie utile a tous ceux qui voudraient mieux comprendre, a travers le temoignage de l'histoire, les vies migraineuses. Esther Lardreau, agregee de philosophie, docteur en histoire de la medecine, est titulaire du DIU Migraines et cephalees. Ses recherches portent sur les procedures et modalites de la pratique medicale.
