description

The dynamics of this thesis resides in the search for the breach between the historical positioning (in relation to scientific fact itself) of homeopathic medication in the history of medical sciences, and the representation made of it in the past and present. By distinguishing what may be at stake, we are led to identify the positioning and impact of the mode of transmitting scientific fact as lacking a historical link to the history of medical sciences, notably medication. Our research hypothesis thus postulates that the transmission mode is at the source of discrepancies in representation. The links between context breakthroughs, such as the role of influences, are just parameters that, when transmitted, both color and help define a subject. For our topic we have been able to demonstrate this lack of bridging as a lack of transmission of the history of medication over the course of time. The only type of transmission was an operational one. The hindsight and analysis of the evolution were barely transmitted, if at all.Given these observations and in order to approach our topic, we were led to retrace the history of medication in the history of civilizations, in relation to the cultural, political and scientific context. Then, we examined the origins of homeopathy in order to demonstrate its positioning in the history of medication, its influences on the history of medication, and all ensuing confrontations. Because of the lack of pluri-disciplinary transmission, aimed at binding the subject to its temporal context, we designed an on-line museum in order to better demonstrate this positioning, thanks to open and dynamic interpretation made possible by digital media. The aim of this work is to illustrate our hypothesis on the positioning of transmission mode via a concrete application which intends to reduce this breach.
