Experimental facts. — According to Bechterew, the optic thalamus forms the chief centre or culminating point of a particular system, and is in a certain degree independent of the cortico-bulbar system with which it is, however, analogous, though very much more simple. Like the cortex, this system is attached to the medulla ob- longata and to the spinal cord by fibres of projection, both sensory and motor, which are special to it. This system is a reflex one : the impulses which ascend to it fro...m the different senses are here reflected as motor acts. These acts, though automatic, are so in a complicated manner, and the sensation of which they are the expression is an emotion, an instinct. The optic thalamus, then, would answer to a functional localization of this order ; it is the principal locality for the elaboration of the emotions. Its connexions with the cortex are numerous ; neverthe- less, it may act independently. In animals, when the cerebral cortex has been removed while the optic thalamus is retained, stimulation of the organs of special sense provokes reflex movements of expression, which are liable to be mistaken for those of emotional expression such as arise in animals under sensorial excitation of the same nature.
