TY - JOUR PY - 1998// TI - [Victor Segalen's death: a medical view-point] JO - Histoire des Sciences Médicales A1 - Mabin, D. SP - 81 EP - 83 VL - 32 IS - 1 N2 - Victor Segalen, born in Brest in 1878, naval physician and writer, died in Huelgoat forest, in Brittany. Accident or self-murder? After analysis of his personality, psychic antecedents, events of his death, and evidences of friends, his suicide seems probable. It is possible that Yvonne, his wife, and Hélène Hilpert, a woman-friend, expected this end. The accident was asserted. Comparison with death of his heroes reinforces suicide hypothesis.
