Thirty years later, this claim was 12 proved by the French surgeon Paul Broca. He had studied aphasic 13 in patients who were found to have brain damage 14 the left frontal lobe. Broca was struck by the contrast with right hemisphere damage, 15 seemed to have little effect on speech. The area Broca isolated and the aphasia associated with it now 16 his name, “Broca’s Aphasia”.
Ten years after Broca’s 17 , Karl Wernicke, a young researcher in Germany, made another startling 18 , which ultimately 19 him to propose not just a new language area but an overall theory of 20 language is handled in the brain.
