I '._ r ; EUROPEAN ORIGINS Franz Joseph GALL (1758-1828) received his medical degree at Vienna in 1785. He had a large and successful practice there, and conducted extensive private researches into the anatomy and the physiology of the brain. He evolved a theory of cerebral localizatior of the several psychological faculties, and maintained that character am.intellect were simply the sum of the combined functions of the organ~ of the brain. Dr Johann Gaspar SPURZHEIM (1776-1832) became associated with Gall after attending his lectures in 1800. It was Spurzheim who coined the term "phrenology" in 1814, when he undertook a lecture tour of Great Britain. Although Gall had recognized the philosophical implications of his theories, in general he had adhered closely to the discipline of experimental psychology; but Spurzheim wandered into metaphysics as well as speculation on education, penology, religion, and other concerns. In this new view science and religion merged; phrenology revealed the laws of nature which God had established, which it was man's duty as well as God's will to follow . When Spurzheim lectured in Edinburgh, one of his auditors was a brilliant young lawyer named George COMBE (1788-1858). Combe , who had been deeply troubled by the Calvinist training of his youth, eagerly seized upon this optimistic new science and commenced an intensive study of it; the result was total conversion and his decision to devote his life to writing and lecturing on phrenology . (Horace ~iann would later describe George Combe's The Constitution of Man as "the greatest book that has been written for centuries.") George and his physician brother, Dr Andrew COMBE (1797-1847), who was one of the first to advocate humane treatment of the insane and the abolition of restraints, formed the Edinburgh Phrenological Society, which had a large membership and an active life. In 1823 they began publishing the quarterly Phrenological Journal, which was to have a distinguished career for the next 24 years. By the 183O's phrenology had given rise to some sixty-six books and pamphlets, which ran through many editions, and the young science was being nourished by twelve phr(ological societies, which furnished readers, authors, and audiences for the many lecturers on the subject. abridged from - - John D Davies, Phrenolog,y 1 fad and science; a 19~ century American crusade. Yale University Press, 1955. BF81 D262p 1971) AMERICAN DEVELOPMENTS In the summer of 1832 Dr SPURZHEIM arrived in America for a lecture tour. In September he began a course of 18 lectures in Boston, and promptly captivated his listeners, both the fashionable and the learned. In less than 2 months he kindled the phrenological flame into a bonfire; when he died suddenly of a 'continued fever', his brain was preserved at the Harvard Medical School, and on the day of his funeral the Boston Phrenological Society was founded (The American Journal of the Medical Sciences mourned: 'The prophet is gone, but his mantle is upon us.') Spurzheim's lectures, his personality, and his dramatic decease acted as a catalyst to produce an intense flare-up of American interest in phrenology. George COMBE made triumphal American lecture tours during the period 1838-40. tie visited cities only on invitation, with a $750 guarantee, and spoke to large and enthusiastic audiences everywhere. The brilliant Scotsman moved with ease and poise in the best society, and his many intimate friends included Henry Ward Beecher, William Ellery Channing, Samuel Gridley Howe, George Bancroft, Nicholas Biddle, Horace Mann, and Benjamin Silliman•••By mid-century, 50 phrenological societies were in existence. The great panjandrum of American phrenology was Orson Squire FOWLER (1809-1887), along with his younger brother, Lorenzo Niles FOWLER, his sister Charlotte FOWLER, and Charlotte's husband S. R. WELLS. For seventy-five years the Fowlers preached the gospel of phrenology throughout the United States, and they had a host of imitators and competitors. The new science seemed to have a special relevance for the new country. How much it promised! It seemed in truth the philosophy of a free country, this doctrine that man's character could be read from the shape of his skull and improved by the exercise of various mental functions. To a nation avid for the practical, it brought a practical system of mental philosophy. To a nation captivated by neat and simple classifications, phrenology explained how to be happy, how to choose a profession, how to select a spouse, how to raise children. Other sociological and psychological applications were the diagnosis and cure of insanity, the conduct of penology, and the reform of the criminal. It was of interest to doctors, scientists, social thinkers, and reformers of every description; and for those persuaded by its optimistic and utilitarian interpretation of life it offered hope for all and a vision of ultimate perfection. • • • • • The firm of Fowlers and Wells published the American Journal of Phrenology, Life Illustrated, the Water Cure Journal, and hundreds of phrenological tracts. It also published the second edition of Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass (Whitman was a devotee, and uses phrenological terminology in many of his poems.) The Fowlers eagerly embraced all the new and radical reform movements of their day -- vegetarianism, anti-lacing and anti-corsetry, bloomers, hydropathy, women's rights, anti-tobacco and temperance movements, phonography (Pitman shorthand), and animal magnetism. abridged from Madeleine B Stern; Heads and headlines; the phrenological Fowlers. University of Oklahoma Press, 1971. WZlOO F787S 1971 "Phrenology depended on three essential principles. In the first place, it split up the mind into faculties; as eventually formulated, there were thirty-seven of these. They were divided into two main groups, affective and intellectual. The affective group was subdivided into two classes, the Propensities (e.g., Amativeness) and the Sentiments (e.g., Self-esteem), while the intellectual group was subdivided into a Perceptive class (e.g., Language) and a Reflective class (e.g., Comparison). "In the second place, phrenology claimed that each of its thirty-seven faculties was located in a definite area of the cortex. "Thirdly, the phrenologists believed that the degree of development of the various parts of the brain corresponding to the faculties could be ascertained by feeling the inequalities in the external contour of the skull; this presupposed that the outer surface corresponded accurately to the surface (and, therefore, the degree of development) of the portion of the brain immediately below. "By a piece of tragic irony phrenology was the most popular of all the doctrines of psychology in the whole history of the science, and at the same time the most erroneous. It affords a striking example of the danger of erecting a vast superstructure on inadequate observation and inexact methods, and the fact that Gall himself was no mere charlatan, but a scientist of admitted ability, only adds to the impressiveness of the lesson -- a lesson on which psychologists of the present day may do well to ponder. "The lesson of phrenology has been inadequately learned, and psychologists have not always realized the necessity of rigorous methods of control in every case where they are applicable. These latter instances show perhaps that psychology has not as yet become entirely tamed by science over the whole of its wide and varied field; a good deal of the speculative licence of the earlier days is to be found here and there. (As is the case with other disciplines, for instance, medicine, which is notoriously subject to fashions and crazes founded on enthusiasm rather than on evidence, and which, like psychology, has not always resorted to such scientific methods of control as are available~" from pp. 36-37 in J.C.

Had it not been for the assistance and co-operation of Mr. Antony S. Chambers, chairman of W. & R. Chambers Ltd, this study would never have become a reality. Not only did he initially give an unknown American permission to study the firm's archives, but he has subsequently provided whatever I needed to facilitate my research. Gracious and generous, he is a worthy descendent of the first Robert Chambers. All associated with the Chambers firm— directors and warehousemen alike— played an important part in my research, from answering technical queries to helping unearth records almost forgotten. Equally helpful in their own way were the librarians of the University of Edinburgh Library and the National Library of Scotland. Finally, the people of Edinburgh made a signif­ icant, albeit indirect, contribution. From them I learned something of what it means to a Scot to be a Scot. In this country I owe my greatest debt to my adviser, Professor Richard D.

    SOME EDINBURGH MEDICAL MEN AT THE TIME OF THE RESURRECTIONISTS * By H. P. TAIT, M.D., F.R.C.P.Ed., D.P.H. Senior Assistant Maternity and Child Welfare Medical Officer, Edinburgh Some time ago I was asked to give a paper to this combined meeting on some historical subject connected with the Edinburgh Medical s School. Since you are to be guests at a performance of Bridie " " The Anatomist tomorrow evening, it was suggested to me that I might speak of some of the medical men of Edinburgh at the time of the Resurrectionists. I hope that what I have to tell you tonight of may be of some interest and may enable you to obtain some sort " background for a more complete enjoyment of the play. The " of Anatomist centres round the figure of Dr Robert Knox, one he our leading anatomists in the twenties of the last century, and it was who gained an unwelcome notoriety by reason of his close association with Burke and Hare, the Edinburgh West Port murderers. Before proceeding to discuss some of the leaders of Edinburgh medi- cine at the time of Knox and the Resurrectionists, may I be permitted to give a brief outline of the Resurrectionist movement in this country- Prior to 1832, when the Anatomy Act was passed and the supply of anatomical material for dissection was regularised, there existed no legal means for the practical study of anatomy in Britain, save for the scanty and irregular material that was supplied by the gallows. Yet the law demanded that the surgeon possess a high degree of skill in his calling ! How, then, was he to obtain this skill without regular dissection ? The answer is that he obtained his material by illegal means, viz., rifling the graves of the newly-buried.

MALLETT Maine Crusades and Crusaders, 1830-1850 Soon after John Winthrop disembarked from the Arbella in 1630, he expressed the desire to see the Massachusetts Bay Colony build a city upon a hill that would promote the greater glory of God, and serve as a model for all mankind. Emphasizing as it would the sovereignty of God and a pious approach to community problems, this transplanted religious group was envisioned as develop­ ing an unprecedented sobriety of manners and purity o f morals. Some two hundred years later, it was obvious that Winthrop’s hopes had been somewhat excessive, but some descendants of the early Massachusetts settlers showed the same burning desire to know the will o f God as had the early colonists. The main difference was that in the nineteenth century the moral and religious zeal of the Puritans frequently took the form o f social reform and utopianism.

  • Abel Fowler 1 Was Born in Rhode Island, USA in About 1781
    Over 200 years of the Fowler Family: The Fowlers, Eddys, Gridleys, Parrishes, etcetera This document is part of the story about the Fowler family of Gratiot and Isabella Counties in central Michigan and their roots in America. Another portion of the story involves the ancestors of Nellie Pearl Brooks (1873-1960), wife of Anson James Fowler and daughter of Elisha Hall Brooks (1818-1891) and Laura Jane Bartlett Brooks (1830-1908). We have broken this branch off into its own document which you can find at http://MelissaCravenFowler.com [choose “Tom’s Ancestry” tab]. You will also find other materials there, such as descendent charts. This story is about the Fowler family of Gratiot and Isabella Counties of central Michigan. It began with the “innocent” question, asked in 2005: “Who was the first Fowler of our line in North America?” Family lore passed down to us states that “Fowler brothers” escaped England for the New World for political reasons. This sounds a lot like the genealogical “fairy tale” which many families have in their oral histories: the quintessential “three brothers” story. In truth, many of those stories are true, as people tended to come to America in groups -- and many in family groups. So far, however, we have not been able to corroborate this in our case, mostly because we do not yet know who our Fowler immigrant-ancestor was! A family story that a Fowler initially was part of the Wells-Fargo stagecoach line has largely been disproved 1, as has the story’s variation that one of the Fowler brothers changed his name to Fargo and was the multiple-great-grandfather of the founder of the stagecoach line.

  • Phrenology, Physiognomy, and the Character of Big Business, 1895-1914 Coleman Sherry Undergraduate Senior Thesi
    Corporate Heads: Phrenology, Physiognomy, and the Character of Big Business, 1895-1914 Coleman Sherry Undergraduate Senior Thesis Department of History Columbia University 29 March 2021 Seminar Advisor: Professor Samuel Roberts Second Reader: Professor Richard John Abstract In this thesis I argue that practical phrenology—a loose set of practices for reading character in heads, faces, and bodies—played an important and underappreciated role in the popular coverage of the large new corporations that emerged from the “Great Merger Movement” around the turn of the twentieth century. I suggest that the scope and pace of the transition from proprietor to corporate ownership created a crisis of economic representation, defined by a lack of stable, mature conventions for describing and illustrating the actual activities of the new consolidated firms. In this context, journalists and cartoonists borrowed from the wildly-popular practical phrenology and personalized the corporations, describing the firms as if they were the straightforward extensions of famous individual owners. Through a close, comparative reading of biographical profiles published in Fowler and Wells’ Phrenological Journal, McClure’s Magazine, and the muckraking cartoons of Puck, I document the trespass of phrenological methods, language, and assumptions into popular contexts and publications. This phrenological personalization allowed public commentators to publish powerful polemics focused on the character of the new firms, but obscured and distorted their true forms. Table
