limbic, a. Anat.|ˈlɪmbɪk|
[ad. F. limbique (see quot. 1901), f. limbe, limb n.2 + -ique, -ic.]
Pertaining to, or having the character of, a border; in limbic lobe (of cerebrum), ‘term applied by Broca to the gyrus fornicatus and its prolongation, constituting the anterior part of the uncinate gyrus, because they are marked off in nearly all mammals from the surrounding convolutions’ (Syd. Soc. Lex.); also limbic fissure, the fissure surrounding this lobe. Also, of or pertaining to the limbic lobe or limbic system; limbic system, a region of the brain comprising the limbic lobe and certain neighbouring areas (see quot. 19671).
1882Quain's Anat. (ed. 9) II. 341 The two ends of the limbic lobe of Broca, which are separated by the deep part of the Sylvian fissure. 1894Gould Illustr. Dict. Med. s.v. Fissure, Limbic Fissure (of Broca), the fissure surrounding Broca's great limbic lobe. It includes the supercallosal, precuneal, and part of the collateral fissures. 1899W. B. Lewis Mental Dis. (ed. 2) 102 The limbic fissure, which here separates the lower limbic arc from the extra-limbic mass. 1901Gray's Anat. (ed. 15) 631 The term limbic lobe (grande lobe limbique) was introduced by Broca in 1878, and under it he included two convolutions, viz. the callosal and hippocampal. 1952Electroencephalogr. & Clin. Neurophysiol. IV. 407 The limbic system is comprised of the cortex contained in the great limbic lobe of Broca..together with subcortical cell stations. 1957H. H. Jasper et al. Reticular Formation Brain 665 There is no doubt that all the varied elementary somatomotor and vegetative mechanisms so clearly influenced by limbic stimulation remain essentially undisturbed after bilateral limbic lesions. 1967C. R. Noback Human Nervous Syst. viii. 224/1 The difficult-to-define limbic system consists of the limbic lobe..some subcortical nuclei (septal nuclei and amygdala), and neural pathways to other nuclear stations of the brain... Some investigators include the ‘other’ nuclei (habenular nucleus, hypothalamus, midbrain tegmentum, thalamus, and interpeduncular nucleus) in the limbic system. Ibid. 226/2 The midbrain and thalamic reticular nuclei receive inputs from several limbic pathways. 1970Nature 28 Feb. 797/1 Other behaviour patterns..have been elicited by stimulating hypothalamic and limbic regions in many species. 1971J. Z. Young Introd. Study Man x. 136 Sohilder's interpretation of the limbic system is as ‘a mechanism for emotion’. |
