Nizier Anthelme Philippe (Maître Philippe de Lyon) 1849–1905

Biography

Philippe was born in 1849 at Le Rubathier, Loisieux, Savoy, France, the son of peasants. His mother was Marie Vachod (1823–1899) and his father was Joseph Philippe (1819–1898). From the age of fourteen he stayed with his uncle Vachod, a butcher in Lyon. He gained a reputation as a healer by the age of thirteen.[1]

As a young man, he enrolled in the institution Sainte-Barbe, held by Abbot Chevalier, where he obtained a grammar certificate. In 1870, during the war between France and Prussia, Philippe relieved the sick he received in the Perrache district of Lyon. During the same period, he is said to have saved the young Jean Chapas, 7 years old and victim of meningitis, who would then become his disciple in 1883.[2]

He married Jeanne Julie Landar (1859–1939) on 6 October 1877 in L'Arbresle. He had a daughter, Jeanne Marie Victoire born on 11 November 1878. She died on 29 August 1904 aged 25, just before her seventh wedding anniversary. He refused to heal her, saying that it was Heaven's wish that she should go on ahead, and predicted the course of her illness and death. "This death," he said, "has for me been a living crucifixion."[1]

Career

He gained a reputation as a miracle worker. He was four times on trial for illegal practice of medicine between 1887 and 1892 and was acquitted.[1] He went to St Petersburg where he was awarded his Doctor's Diploma in recognition of extraordinary feats of remote healing conducted in St Petersburg.[1]

Grand Duchess Militza Nikolaevna of Russia later introduced Dr. Philippe to Empress Alexandra Feodorovna of Russia in 1901, and Dr. Philippe became a close adviser to the imperial couple.[1]

In October 1884 he presented a paper (published in French) entitled "Principles of Hygiene applicable in Pregnancy, Childbirth and Infancy" at the University of Cincinnati, Ohio. In recognition of this the university conferred a Doctorate of Medicine on him.[1] Many other academic and social honors were conferred on him during the 1880s and 1890s in France and Italy.[1]

Philippe died on 2 August 1905 at the age of 56, in L'Arbresle, Rhône, France, where he was living. He is buried in the cemetery of Loyasse, in Lyon, France. Jean Chapas (1863–1932), the beloved disciple of Master Philippe, is also buried in the cemetery of Loyasse.[1]

At Philippe's death, his family discovered that he was paying the rents for 52 families in need.[3] His disciple Jean Chapas continued to pay all the rents until his death in 1932.[3]
