Les efforts pour contr=F4ler et traiter le cancer sont souvent d=E9crits dans des termes militaires. L'image d'une guerre contre la maladie fut jadis appliqu=E9e aux autres "maladies fl=E9au" comme la tuberculose et la syphilis, mais dans ces cas elle se r=E9f=E9rait =E0 des interventions visant =E0 limiter la propagation d'une infection. La "guerre contre le cancer" est tr=E8s diff=E9rente. Il s'agit avant tout d'un combat direct contre "le crabe", pr=E9sent=E9 comme un ennemi acharn=E9, sournois et cruel. Une utilisation intensive de m=E9taphores militaires est unique au cancer. On parle rarement d'une guerre contre les accidents vasculaires c=E9r=E9braux, la maladie de Parkinson, le diab=E8te, les maladies neurod=E9g=E9n=E9ratives ou l'emphys=E8me pulmonaire. Les individu= s qui succombent =E0 ces affections ne le font pas au terme d'une "longue et courageuse bataille", et ceux qui gu=E9rissent ou sont stabilis=E9s ne sont pas pr=E9sent=E9s comme des "survivants" ou des "h=E9ros ordinaires". Pour comprendre pourquoi le cancer est per=E7u =E0 travers des images militaires, il faudra se pencher sur l'histoire de cette maladie. Par Ilana L=F6wy.
