Abstract
The influence of revolutionary eras, major coup d'état, popular movements on the mental health of the population has long been of interest to doctors. The corresponding political epochs naturally served as the subject of study by psychiatrists in this direction. There are observations regarding the impact of the French revolutions on the mental health of the population; on the basis of these observations, a political psychosis was singled out in the middle of the last century - folie polytique (Bel'hommey), but there were also opposite views that denied any significant influence of revolutionary epochs on the mental health of those who experienced them (Legvand-du-Saulle)
