Language and the medial temporal lobe: Evidence from H.M.'s spontaneous discourse

Article Abstract:

An original linguistic analysis of the famous amnesic patient H.M. based on empirical data drawing upon novel spoken discourse with him is presented. The results show that H.M.'s level of oral usage is remarkably competent, as he performed well within the normal range for his age and educational cohort and there is no support for the view that medial temporal lobe structures are critical for the maintenance of language comprehension and production.
