Description:

Browne's 'essay 'Impairment of language, the result of cerebral disease', showed the reflections of one of phrenology's early proponents living to see this revival of cerebral localization [at the West Riding Lunatic Asylum during the 1870's], still faithfully adherent to the old discipline and convinced of its real explanatory power. Thus whilst proposing to 'regard aphasia from a somewhat new point of view', he actually situated contemporary work in the light of Gall's phrenology, which 'gave an impulse to the cerebral localization of our faculties, the effect of which is especially visible in our own days'. Browne's report, which relied heavily on Frederic Bateman's large book On Aphasia (1870), rejected any modern approaches to cerebral localizarion in favour of phrenological organology, even if physiogical and pathological evidence as to the localization of such an.organ or faculty [language] was as yet incomplete or contradictory.'
