Among historians it has been more or less common to attribute genius in the past to epilepsy and kindred diseases. Jullus sar, Paul of Tarsus, Mohammed, and even Jesus of Nazareth, have been regarded by some as epileptics Modern medical students and ps ‘chologists disagree with that view In the first place there is not enough available data regarding the lives of these men to warrant such a sup- position and in the second place epilepsy tends to lower mental powers and verges on ineanity, in- stead of being a stimulus to great deeds and producing the power of leadership. ~ The whole question is one of opinion, where historians dis- agree, but the trend of medical opinion is to discredit the theory.
