Document Summary
Wernicke noticed that damage in the posterior temporal lobe causes a problem in language: he called this the loss of the word-image , meaning that the auditory meaning of the word had gone. Wernicke discovered the arcuate fasciculus connecting wernicke"s area to brodmann. Geschwind formalized the importance of this fasciculus, hence why the older model for aphasia is referred to as the wernicke-geschwind model. Stimulation studies of the posterior temporal lobe and the inferior parietal lobule can lead to. The main part of the inferior parietal lobule involved in language is the supramarginal gyrus (ba. Further studying of the anatomy of the brain have moved us away from the idea that it"s two. Additional language areas language disturbances centers of language. The dorsal stream: the perisylvian area is important in language in different ways. Note: a stream is a series of pathways involved in a function.
