During the nineteenth century, tumultuous relationships existed between the public authorities, the Paris Medical Faculty, its students and teachers, the medical and the popular press. These agitated debates concerned the value of teaching history in medical studies. This paper aims to follow the main steps of these debates through various texts: the new plan for the structure of Medicine in France (1790); the creation (1795), suppression (1822) and restoration (1870) of the Paris chair of the History of Medicine; Guerin's report (1830) concerning the a new reorganization of the Paris Medical Faculty; Dr. Dezeimeris's petitions (1837) addressed to the French Minister of State for Education. These debates remain topical and instructive.
