Sommario/riassunto

De toutes les femmes qui ont joué un rôle important dans la vie de Baudelaire, madame Sabatier - la Présidente - est sans doute celle sur laquelle on a le plus écrit. Pourtant, Une femme trop gaie enrichit et modifie le regard porté sur l’héroïne et son destin. L’auteur parvient en effet à éclairer les zones d’ombre entretenues par Edmond Richard, dernier amant et premier biographe de la Présidente, et à dissiper quelques légendes tenaces, grâce à des archives en grande partie inédites. En même temps qu’un tableau vivant de la vie artistique du XIXe siècle, cette biographie livre de nombreux épisodes inconnus de la vie de Mme Sabatier, en particulier sur ses jeunes années et sur la période qui succède à ses célèbres dîners - où se côtoyait le Tout-Paris artistique - jusqu’à sa mort en 1890, soit près d’un demi-siècle encore inexploré ponctué d’amitiés et d’amours. Mais surtout, l’analyse systématique de sa correspondance, de celles de ses amis et des œuvres littéraires auxquelles elle fut associée permet de présenter sa relation avec Baudelaire sous un angle tout à fait nouveau (notamment en ce qui concerne le «fiasco» dont le poète aurait été victime), de comprendre la place que Flaubert lui réserva dans L’Éducation sentimentale et de cerner la complicité qu’elle entretint avec Théophile



Gautier, auteur de la célèbre Lettre à la Présidente, chef-d’œuvre de la littérature érotique. Près de vingt ans de recherches, menées avec la minutie d’une instruction criminelle, ont été nécessaires à Thierry Savatier pour écrire cet ouvrage. Au-delà des clichés de la déesse inaccessible ou de la courtisane apparaît alors une femme qui, par son rôle auprès de créateurs de premier plan et par sa totale indépendance de cœur et d’esprit, fut étonnamment moderne pour son temps. Arrière-petit-neveu de la Présidente, Thierry Savatier poursuit une carrière dans l’industrie (marketing, renseignement économique) et, parallèlement, des recherches sur la littérature et l’art du XIXe siècle.

Sommario/riassunto

Brain stimulation techniques, transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (TDCS), modify brain function through interaction with multiple neurotransmitters and networks. The implementation of these non-invasive stimulation techniques in physiology, behavioral studies, with modelling or functional imaging has provided an outstanding causal link between brain structure and function and helped identify neural networks mediating cognitive or motor function. The potential efficacy of non-invasive brain stimulation procedures for the management of specific symptoms in diverse neurological and psychiatric conditions has been tested in the past decade or so. For example, repetitive TMS over prefrontal areas has been extensively investigated as a treatment for



patients with medication-resistant depression and has been shown to be associated with improvement of mood. Similarly, non-invasive stimulation techniques have been applied to various symptoms of Parkinson's disease such as bradykinesia and dyskinesias, with variables degrees of success reported. However, attempts to expand previously observed clinical improvements to other neurological disorders (e.g. Tourette's syndrome, autism, epilepsy) has been controversial. In trying to bypass potential confounding elements, researchers aim to target neural populations altered in disease to either increase or decrease their corrupted baseline activity. In addition, a complementary approach is to extend stimulation protocols that results enhanced behavior in healthy participants. One of the potential limitation of this latter strategy has been that most of the protocols evaluated in healthy participants have been tested in populations that are not comparable to the patient populations. This Frontiers Research Topic on non-invasive brain stimulation and enhancement of function seeks to combine contributions from researchers who found non-invasive brain stimulation induced improvement of either a motoric, cognitive or behavioral nature investigated behaviorally, physiologically or using brain imaging techniques in clinical populations. Investigation of the relation between enhancement of function in healthy populations and improvement of symptoms in patients with neurological or psychiatric disorders needs further consideration. Critically, the topic will be centered on the following topics to expand current knowledge: • selection of adequate stimulation protocols, including simple questions such as whether TMS or TDCS is more efficacious for inducing enhancement of function in brain disease; • methodological issues such as optimizing cortical targets and the use of good control groups; • which symptoms to tackle in different brain disorders. For example, is it possible to de-activate hyperactive cortical regions present in Parkinson disease to induce clinical amelioration? Do protocols used in healthy populations produce similar predictable effects in parkinsonian persons?; • potential of using stimulation protocols in combination with pharmacological or cognitive therapy; • the use of appropriate clinical, behavioral, physiological and imaging tools to measure brain plastic changes. Consideration about possible multi-centre clinical trials: feasibility, problems and authorization pathways. Studies or reviews on cost-effectiveness. The aim of this topic is to determine which disease signs are treatable with non-invasive brain stimulation and available protocols to interfere with altered brain systems and produce enhanced motor and behavior outcomes. This Frontiers Research Topic will be important in identifying new avenues of clinical research for rapid advances in the field.
