Text Appearing Before Image:
s only temporar%- deaf-ness or no evident sign of it at all. Brown and Schafer completely removed bothtemporal lobes from a monkey. Immediately after the operation the animalsintelligence was very much affected, but this condition gradually passed away sothat the animal once more became very intelligent. The authors themselves andseveral other physiologists and physicians tried numerous experiments with theanimal and came to the conclusion that all its senses including hearing were per-fectly acute. Moreover, there was no chance for the claim that the reactions ofthis animal to auditory stimuli were really due to excitation of the cutaneousnerves. From these observations it appears therefore that the auditory pathwaysdo not end in the temporal lobes alone, although they may be most concentratedthere. The course of the fibers of the cochlear nerve inside the cerebrum leavesno doubt that the temporal lobes in man stand in very intimate relation with 654 PHYSIOLOGY OF THE CEREBRUM Vision
