Abstract
Félix Pinel-Grandchamp (1798-1851), who was awarded the Prix Esquirol in 1821 for his work on the cerebral localization of movement and mental disorders, had a parallel career as an audacious obstetrician and as a surgeon who experimented with new techniques. He was also an active Republican who was involved in the 1830 and 1848 Revolutions in Paris. We illustrate below the courageous life of this unknown disciple of Jean-Etienne Esquirol using hitherto unpublished documents.
