By the early-twentieth century, investigations into the microstructure of cortical tissue enabled further subdivision of the cortex into distinct regions, laying the foundation for correlating anatomical structure with function. Advances in neurophysiology-such as the discovery of reflexes, synaptic transmission, and the development of electroencephalography-revealed that neurons operate in organized circuits rather than independently. However, the link between brain structure and consciousness remained elusive. Between 1950 and 1956, C. Judson Herrick, a comparative neuroanatomist, and George Bishop, a neurophysiologist, explored this question through correspondence. Herrick analyzed how increasing structural complexity between species corresponded with more complex behavior. Bishop, known for his work with Joseph Erlanger and Herbert Gasser on nerve action potentials, advanced the understanding of nerve fiber function. Together, Herrick and Bishop explored the role of older, more primitive brain structures in facilitating higher functions and emphasized the interconnectedness and integration of brain regions. Although their exchange did not resolve how brain structure results in complex behaviors, their dialogue highlighted the importance of evolutionary and comparative perspectives in understanding brain function.","PeriodicalId":49997,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the History of the Neurosciences","volume":" ","pages":"307-326"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2026-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147787519","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They were characterized by highly developed urbanism, architecture, education, sculpture, painting, pottery, jewelry, farming, medicine, sports, astronomy, war techniques, and other activities. Their physicians, called Ticitl, knew and treated several neurological diseases, including head trauma, epilepsy, vascular diseases, headache, dementia, depression, and addictions. This review describes Mexica knowledge of neurology and associated therapeutics. A literature review on the topic was performed in scholarly databases: I found 35 articles in PubMed, Google Scholar, and other databases. Based on these publications as well as historical documents, I describe how the Mexicas integrated their understanding and use of medicinal herbs as well as religious ceremonies for several neurological diseases.

First, I explore the theatrical aspects of the practice of the founder of French neurology, Jean-Martin Charcot (1825-1893), characterizing his lecture style and diagnostic practice as a dramaturgical or choreological method. Charcot and his peers depicted the neuropathological body as a sensorial assemblage whose expressions and inputs could be charted across the dimensions of time and space, each body acting within an often determinative mise en scène, as in a theater. This echoed Richard Wagner's influential concept of a musico-dramatic Gesamtkunstwerk, or a totalizing combination of diverse actions, sensory inputs, sounds, and responses. I then trace reverberations from Charcot's practice within the theater of his own time and beyond, isolating the main trends. Charcot's lectures, and particularly his famous work on hysteroepilepsy and hypnosis, meant that although he and his peers championed neoclassical performances, their influence was most pronounced upon grotesque cabaretic mime and dance; the semihypnotized performance style of expressionism; the balance of automatism versus conscious reflection promoted by Konstantin Stanislavski; and, above all, the fraught depiction of modern nervous character types and women by Émile Zola and Henrik Ibsen.","PeriodicalId":49997,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the History of the Neurosciences","volume":" ","pages":"156-174"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145543405","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Gage's 1848 brain injury is a seminal case in the history of neuroscience, yet its nineteenth-century media coverage has remained largely unexplored. We adopted a novel methodological approach, systematically screening newly digitized newspaper archives (Newspapers.com™, Google News Archives, and Chronicling America) for articles published in the United States between 1848 and 1899, retrieving a total of 831 reports. Analysis revealed that most coverage (72.44%) occurred posthumously, questioning the relevance of later accounts and the prominence of Gage's case during his own lifetime. Despite numerous reprints, misspellings, and inaccuracies, previously unknown primary sources were identified, providing new evidence of Gage's functional recovery, occasional exhibitions in New England, early references in European journals, and unpublished photographs and drawings of his skull and tamping iron. Accounts from 1848-1849, in particular, offer detailed insights into the immediate aftermath and public reception of the accident. These findings highlight the intersections between the history of medicine and media, challenging assumptions about the uniqueness of Gage's case and illustrating how nineteenth-century newspapers shaped public perceptions of brain injury. Digitized archives now provide an unprecedented opportunity to reassess historical cases and improve the accuracy of information regarding Phineas P. Gage's life.","PeriodicalId":49997,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the History of the Neurosciences","volume":" ","pages":"186-206"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145851432","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study anticipated by fifty years those traditionally recognized as the first to link choreic movements with cortico-striatal involvement, but regardless of the author's intention, has also come to be considered the first on the neuropathology of Huntington's disease. This has given rise to a dispute between one position in favor of this diagnosis based on the clinical-anatomical correlation and the other opposed to the diagnosis, based on the lack of a family history of chorea. Given the absence of remains and slides to be used for DNA and histological analyses, we attempted to fill this gap by carrying out genealogical studies, but have so far been unable to identify any other choreic patients in the patient's family or any association with homonymous families with Huntington's disease currently living in the same region as Golgi's patient. This does not end the controversy and indeed raises the issue of diagnosis, but it does not deprive Golgi of the merit of having first identified the neuropathology of chronic chorea.","PeriodicalId":49997,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the History of the Neurosciences","volume":" ","pages":"20-37"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145349632","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
