TY - JOUR PY - 2006// TI - Did Jean Condorcet (1743-1794) commit suicide? JO - Journal of medical biography A1 - Olry, Regis A1 - Dupont, G. SP - 183 EP - 186 VL - 14 IS - 3 N2 - Condorcet was a famous French mathematician, philosopher and revolutionary. In circumstances that are still unclear, he died in a cell of the Bourg-Egalité prison on 29 March 1794. Most historians of the French Revolution accept suicide as the most likely cause of death but we cannot rule out the possibility that he died of stroke or exhaustion.
