After studies on the general Paralysis, the Alcoholism and alcoholic mania them, it defends, according to a vision different from that of B-A.Morel, the Dégénérescence in psychiatry in “general Considerations on the madness of hereditary or degenerated”, published in 1887.

In 1891, it publishes the work “Lessons clinical on the mental diseases”. The same year, it resumes the study of “Is delirious chronic with systemic evolution” which it opposes, by comparing it point by point, with are delirious Polymorphe S of “degenerated”.

Partisan of a therapeutic attitude very medicalized with respect to the mentally ills, it recommended in particular the “Clinothérapie”, or maintenance with the bed during almost all the day, which it did not obtain without difficulty of the Maniaque S, excited or agitated.
