This paper examines the use of the medical metaphor in the early theories of crises. It first considers the borrowing of medical terminology and generic references to disease, which, notwithstanding their relatively trivial character, illustrate how crises were originally conceived as disturbances (often of a political nature) to a naturally healthy system. Then it shows how a more specific metaphor, the fever of speculation, shifted the emphasis by treating prosperity as the diseased phase, to which crises are a remedy. The metaphor of the epidemic spreading of the disease introduced the theme of the cumulative character of both upswing and downswing, while the similitude with intermittent fevers accounted for the recurring nature of crises. Finally, the paper examines how the medical reflections on the causality of diseases contributed to the epistemology of crises theory, and reflects on the metaphysical shift accompanying the transition from the theories of crises to the theories of cycles.

This article examines the literature on the periodical recurrence of economic crises up to the 1840s, illustrating how awareness of this phenomenon was far more widespread than the few existing histories of business cycle theories indicate, that observations of this phenomenon began much earlier than previously documented, and also that early writers were more interested in emphasizing the intermittent return of crises rather than their precise timing.

Résumé Cet article compare les problèmes intervenant au cours du travail éditorial relatif aux Interwar Papers and Correspondence (1919-1939) de Roy Harrod et aux pièces associées à la préparation (1934-1937) de l'enquête Prosperity and Depression de Gottfried Haberler, menée pour la Société des nations. Les différents contextes d'élaboration de ces écrits sont en particulier examinés, de même que l'état des collections archivistiques et que quelques aspects spécifiques, tels que l'existence de différentes versions d'un texte ou de lettres en différentes langues. Les solutions envisagées sont illustrées. S'agissant des papiers de Harrod, certains problèmes éditoriaux liés à la nécessité d'être sélectif ont été résolus par le recours à une édition électronique en ligne accompagnant la version imprimée. Les caractéristiques et les mérites de cette édition électronique sont discutés, tandis que les résultats que l'on peut déduire de son usage sont dressés à partir d'une étude de la fréquence des visites des différentes pages du site internet .
