De Lanessan was elected to the Municipal Council of Paris in 1879.

He was recalled in 1894, and published in the following year an apologia for his administration. He published numerous books on social and colonial topics. [Taken from the 11th Britannica].

A young lawyer at the royal court of Paris, Regnault here attacked the monomania doctrine. "He produced a broad historical survey of medical opinion on insanity, beginning with Boerhaave and running through Pinel and Esquirol, which revealed that the literature contained nothing but a mass of contradictions abuot the nature and bodily locus of mental disease. ... The medical community took Regnault's attack very seriously. His book was reviewed in virtually every Parisian medical journal, and the reviews ... usually contained attempts at reasoned rebuttal and refutation" [Jan Goldstein, Console and Classify: The French Psychiatric Profession in the Nineteenth Century, p. 185].
