CHAPTER IX. LOCATION OF THE ORGANS, OR GEOGRAPHY OF THE BRAIN. 1. In studying geography, you have an atlas or map, on which all the countries, states, towns, mountains, rivers, etc., are placed in their regular situations. To find any of them, you have only to refer to your atlas, and you are sure of success. I have told you the location of each one of the organs in the brain separately. I now wish you to consider the whole brain together, as a large mass—not of the world, but of all the powers and faculties of the human mind-or, of what has been quaintly called-" man's little world." 2. When you wish to recollect the situation of a particular state, your mind not only reverts to the particular situation of that state alone, but also recalls all the states around it. When you think of Italy, you almost insensibly bound Italy, or think of all the states around it. I intend to teach you to bound each one of the organs, so that you may recollect not only the situation of one, but of all the group to which it belongs; for, if you learn their location separately, you will be too much What is the subject of chapter ninth? 1. How do children study geography? How is the whole brain to be considered? 2. In what way is a particular state remembered? Give an illustration. What will children now be taught? Why? SYMBOLICAL HID-ATLAS OF THE BRAIN. 189 inclined to think of them separately, and, as I told you in my description of Comparison, we must classify and arrange all our ideas on every subject. Give me your attention, and you will find this geography of the brain to be a highly interesting subject. 2. By North, I mean above, upward, toward the top of the head, commencing at Amativeness, and also at the nose, with the exception of the three organs on the top of the head; by South, I mean below, toward the neck, ears, and nose; by East and West I mean the sides, which will frequently be the same, because most of the organs are double. As you learn the boundaries of each organ, try to find it on the head of some of your friends. You will please refer to your atlas of the brain, or the Symbolical Head-the frontispiece of this volume-and also to the bust marked by Fowlers & Wells, which represents one half of the head-the other half has the same organs; those on the top of the head extend in an equal space on the other side. You have probably learned, by the representations, the names of the organs, and, as each one is numbered, you will probably find no difficulty in placing them, or learning their situations. No. 1.
