Excerpt from The Alienist and Neurologist, 1887, Vol. 8: A Quarterly Journal of Scientific, Clinical and Forensic Psychiatry and Neurology We cannot have a correct conception of the physi ology and the pathology of language, so far as the present state of science permits, without having some notion, however general it may be, of its origin and development. If to any of you it may seem that, in treating Of this subject, I overstep the limits assigned to the realm of clinical medi cine, I console myself with the conviction that this science cannot, ih the interpretation of morbid phenomena justly pertaining to it, tolerate barriers of any sort, and that in accomplishing its purpose, it must draw from every available source of human knowledge those elements, which may, as rays of light, serve to dispel the lingering shadows of that empiricism, from which in modern times it has been emancipated, let us hope, forever.
