Commentary
Médaille, conservée dans une boîte cartonnée bordeaux, décernée au docteur Aupetit.
Dans la mythologie grecque, Asclépios (en latin Aesculapius) est dans l'épopée homérique un héros thessalien puis, à l'époque classique, le dieu gréco-romain de la médecine. Fils d'Apollon, il meurt foudroyé par Zeus pour avoir ressuscité les morts, avant d'être placé dans le ciel sous la forme de la constellation du Serpentaire.
Il correspond à l'Esculape romain, dont le nom est une traduction en alphabet latin du dieu grec, et à l'Imhotep égyptien. Son attribut principal est le bâton d'Asclépios, autour duquel s'enroule un serpent, aujourd'hui symbole de la médecine.
Son principal lieu de culte est situé à Épidaure, où il guérit les pèlerins par incubation. Il est invoqué dans le serment d'Hippocrate aux côtés de son père Apollon et de ses filles principales Hygie et Panacée. Il est l'ancêtre mythique des Asclépiades, une dynastie de médecins exerçant à Cos et Cnide, dont Hippocrate est le plus illustre membre..
Medal, preserved in a burgundy cardboard box, awarded to Doctor Aupetit. In Greek mythology, Asclepius (in Latin Aesculapius) is a Thessalian hero in the Homeric epic and then, in the classical period, the Greco-Roman god of medicine. Son of Apollo, he died struck down by Zeus for having resurrected the dead, before being placed in the sky in the form of the constellation Serpentarius. He corresponds to the Roman Aesculapius, whose name is a translation into the Latin alphabet of the Greek god, and to the Egyptian Imhotep. His main attribute is the staff of Asclepius, around which a serpent is coiled, today a symbol of medicine. His main place of worship is located at Epidaurus, where he heals pilgrims by incubation. He is invoked in the Hippocratic Oath alongside his father Apollo and his main daughters Hygieia and Panacea. He is the mythical ancestor of the Asclepiades, a dynasty of physicians practicing in Cos and Cnidus, of which Hippocrates is the most illustrious member.

Historical background
IV REPUBLIC
(16/01/1947-8/01/1959)
Characterized by a parliamentary regime coupled with great ministerial instability, the Fourth Republic has the particularity of never having been officially proclaimed. Indeed, De Gaulle, when he arrived in Paris on August 25, 1944, refused to do so on the pretext that the Republic had never ceased to exist. Considering that the French State of Marshal Pétain was only a simple state of affairs, he considers that the Republic survived in free France and his birth certificate must then be June 18, 1940. However, his departure, the January 20, 1946, and the referendum of October 13, 1946 approving a new Constitution, mark the official beginning of this republic. It knows two presidents: Vincent Auriol (16/01/1947 - 23/12/1953) and René Coty (23/12/1953 - 8/1/1959). The open crisis caused by the revolt of the army of Algeria leads, in 1958, to its fall which is confirmed by the adoption of a new constitution on September 28, 1958. Nevertheless, it does not cease definitively until the 8 January 1959 when General de Gaulle was installed as President of the Fifth Republic.
