Read across 1905–1906, The Phrenological Review is Bernard Hollander's early-twentieth-century attempt to REHABILITATE phrenology as a science of cerebral LOCALIZATION — to re-ground it in brain anatomy and physiology. It is the most scientific and least commercial of the phrenology titles: heavy on the brain, cerebral localization, and craniological measurement, with strong attention to forensic and penal questions (criminal responsibility, insanity) and almost none of the popular head-reading apparatus. It represents the last serious bid to save phrenology by tying it to neurology — the discipline reaching, at the end, for the authority of the laboratory rather than the fairground. Generated by Claude from the periodical's digitized text; a thematic reading, not a bibliographic description. |
