, Diagram a) shows that if the intermediary between sensory nerve (s) and motor nerve, Gustav Scherz, Hafniae: A. Busck, 1952, t. II, addiment. 24, p.950
, various motor responses: various motions (m) of the eyes (oculorum)
, hand (man.), back (dors), waist (? -'ren'), or feet (pedes), it will trigger the same kind of motor response: the eye muscle will move (o.), the vocal chords will produce [p. 108] a yell of pain (c. for 'clamor'), and the hands (m.) will move to remove the pain, or the feet (p.) will run away. Stenon finally arrives at the following conclusion: This intermediary of mine, between senses and nerves of movement, perceiving and [determining] movement, Conversely, diagram c) shows how various sensory impulses can trigger the same set of motor responses: wherever someone is burned, be it on the head (caput), p.73
, Steno's reasoning rests on the restriction of material properties to extension and, as a consequence of this, on the restriction of bodily modifications to the visible effects of local impulses. It is a striking fact that Steno limits himself to third-person data and that, from those, he infers the existence of something that is precisely not physical but goes beyond the experimental query. According to Steno's critical experimentalism, such a non-extended thing cannot be associated with a specific seat in the brain. When we summarize these various elements
