The paper retraces the singular and dramatic personal and professional vicissitudes of the Hungarian physician Ignaz Philipp Semmelweis, who in order to fight the puerperal fevers, faced the medical establishment of the time and the dominant scientific paradigm, ending up being tragically misunderstood and marginalized. According to Khun’s model, Semmelweis, unfortunately, was a revolutionary doctor in a phase of ‘normal science’.
