[29] See Œc. R. A. Vol. II., Nos. 100, 101, 191; ›Quod sensationes
externae non ad ulteriores metas quam ad sphaerulas corticales
pertingant, id satis in confirmato est, quando hae fibrarum nervearum et
medullarium sunt principia›; and 113, 130, 140, 141, etc. See also ›The
Brain› No. 98.
[30] As observed in Quain’s ›Elements of Anatomy›, Tenth edition, edit.
by E. A. SCHÄFER and G. D. THANE, Vol. III., Part. I, p. 39: ›The term
medulla oblongata, as employed by WILLIS and VIEUSSENS, and by those who
directly followed them, included the crura cerebri and pons Varolii,
as well as that part to which by HALLER first, and by most subsequent
writers, this term has been restricted.›
[31] See Œc. R. A. Vol. II., Nos. 83-85, 91, 93, 95, 114, 140: ›Proinde
cum totidem origines motus sunt, quot sphaerulae istius substantiae;› and
144, 146: ›Sic distinctissime quaevis (sphaerula) suam fibrulam animat
& usque ad ejus finem in fibram corporis motricem influit;› 157 and
191-194-95, 202 etc. See also ›The Brain›, No. 399.
[32] So, for example, in Œc. R. A. Vol. II., No. 100: ... ›quod Cortex
sit principalis totius Cerebri substantia; in ipso termino primo Fibrarum
et ultimo Arteriarum sita; See also Œc. R. A. Vol. II., 111-116, 133,
134, 138, 152, 197, 290, etc., or, for example, Œc. R. A. III., No.
127, fin., and No. 404, where we read as follows: ›Ex anatome Cerebri
id constat, quod Cerebrum, seu substantia ejus corticalis, quae proprie
cerebrum audit, sit _Sensorium commune_, nam quinque organa suos sensus
externos ad corticem ut ad suum sensorium commune et unicum internum
referunt. Cerebrum corticale etiam est _Motorium commune voluntarium_,
quicquid enim agendum est mediantibus nervis et musculis, id praevia
voluntate a cerebro determinandum est.›
[33] Œc. R. A. II., 107: ›Partes hujus substantiae — — — merentur _Organa
Sensuum interiorum_ et Cerebellula nuncupari, nam media substantia
medullari et sanguine ab Organis externis alluentes modos et tactus
recipiunt, et ad judicem animam referunt.› See also Œc. R. A. 191, 192,
Œc. R. A. II., 195: — — ›Substantiae Corticales totidem sunt Cerebellula,
— —; singula enim sensorium est in particulari, quale est Cerebrum in
communi.›
