références: Garrison-Morton [11407 : "Between the mid-1700s and the early 1900s many physicians lost confidence in their ability to declare legal death. This phenomenon was in part sparked by Winslow, whose dissertation claimed the existence of a death-like state often referred to as “suspended animation.” In addition, it argued that victims to these conditions should not be pronounced dead, nor buried, until their bodies demonstrated overt putrefaction. "] Claudio Milanesi [ "La mort-instant et la mort processus", Revue Dix-huitième siècle, 1991, 23 : "Non seulement Bruhier théorisait l'existence d'un état ambigu, incertain, entre la vie et la mort, mais il donnait aussi une impulsion aux recherches sur la réanimation."].
