QUATREFAGES DE BREAU, JEAN LOUIS ARMAND DE (1810-1892), French naturalist, was born at Berthezene, near Vallerangue (Gard), on the loth of February 181o, the son of a Protestant farmer.
Elected professor of natural history at the Lycee Napoleon in 185o, he became a member of the Academy of Sciences in 1852, and in 1855 was called to the chair of anthropology and ethnography at the Musee d'histoire naturelle.
Hence his serious studies on the anatomical characters of the lower and higher organisms, man included, will retain their value, while many of his theories and generalizations, especially in the department of ethnology, are already forgotten.

 Biografia de Jean Louis de Quatrefages
En la capital de Francia, sus inclinaciones por las ciencias naturales -especialmente la zoología y la paleontología-, se evidenciaron en dos tesis más con que revalidó su doctorado en esas ciencias, y que trataban sobre la dentición de los roedores y sobre fósiles de estos animales.
Los cinco primeros volúmenes de esta obra, además del tratado de las razas humanas fósiles, se refieren en lo fundamental al estudio de los melanesios y de los negros; mientras que el sexto, debido casi exclusivamente a Hamy, a los tasmanios y papúes.
Quatrefages intentó conformar una adecuada clasificación para las ramas fósiles humanas, y creyó que al menos el hombre existía ya en el Terciario, como afirmó en el V Congreso Internacional de Antropología y Arqueología Prehistórica realizado en Bologna en 1871.

 Paris : histoire rue du Battoir. Rues autrefois
Elle a été appelée rue Neuve Saint-René, rue Saint-René et, en 1603, rue du Battoir, puis rue de Quatrefages ; l'origine de cette dernière appellation vient de Jean Louis Armand de Quatrefages de Bréau (1810-1892), naturaliste ; voisinage du Muséum d'histoire naturelle.
On raconte que la pauvre dame, bien qu'elle manquât de bois pour se chauffer et de rideaux, à sa fenêtre, s'habilla néanmoins, jusqu'au dernier moment, avec une survivance de coquetterie, moins compatible encore avec les ressources de son vestiaire qu'avec son âge.
La vieille comtesse de Schomberg, quand elle enjambait un ruisseau, n'osait retrousser que sa robe ; et comme elle n'était pas surchargée d'embonpoint, quelquefois un galant la prenait encore, par-derrière, pour une bourgeoise déchue d'un âge consolable, et elle en savait gré au jupon vert, qui avait vu lui-même des temps meilleurs.

In this article Remarques sur le siége de la faculté du langage articulé, suivies d'une observation d'aphemie (perte de la parole), Broca presented a detailed account of his post-mortem examination of Tan's brain, where he had found a superficial lesion in the left frontal lobe.
From this and subsequent observations he concluded that the integrity of the posterior part of the left third frontal convolution was indispensable to articulate speech, and he therefore termed this region the circonvolution du langage.

 Nat' Academies Press, The Academic Research Enterprise within the Industrialized Nations: Comparative Perspectives ...
Immediately on coming to power in 195S, De Gaulle declared scientific research to be a key to the national independence and economic prosperity of France, and suddenly what had been seen as a relatively minor element in governmental planning assumed the status of a priority.
Although it is an important part of my argument that the tide had been running strongly in favour of research since the accession of President De Gaulle in 1958, the signs of anxiety about the state of research in France in the later years of the Presidency of Valery Giscard d'Estaing are unmistakable.
The "Prologue" to the report speaks of the profound "malaise" of the research community and itemizes complaints ranging from the excessive bureaucratization of research to what was seen as a weakening of governmental support through the 1970s.
