Between Moscow and Berlin: The Russian connections behind Flatau’s “Law of Eccentric Location of Long Pathways in Spinal Cord” (2022)
Lichterman, Boleslav L. (Author)

Journal of the History of the Neurosciences
Volume: 31
Issue: 4
Pages: 450-465
The origins of Edward Flatau’s “The Law of Eccentric Location of Long Pathways in Spinal Cord” are discussed, considering newly examined archival documents from Central State Archive of Moscow and Museum of the I. M. Sechenov University (former medical faculty of Imperial Moscow University [IMU]). These documents, together with German and Polish records, illustrate the international character of Flatau’s education and shed light on the bigger question of interactions between Moscow and Berlin fin de siècle neurologists. Flatau’s peregrinations between these two cities are documented, together with difficulties encountered due to his nationality and the changing political environment.
