George Combe : ウィキペディア英語版 | George Combe
George Combe (21 October 1788 – 14 August 1858) was the leader of – and the spokesman for – the phrenological movement for more than twenty years. He founded the Edinburgh Phrenological Society in 1820 and was the author of the highly influential ''The Constitution of Man'' (1828). Combe was trained in Scots law and had an Edinburgh solicitor's practice. In his later years, after a successful marriage in 1833, Combe devoted himself to international travel in the promotion of phrenology. ==Early life== George Combe was born in Edinburgh, the son of George Combe, a prosperous brewer in the city, and the elder brother of Andrew Combe. After attending the High School of Edinburgh and the University of Edinburgh, Combe entered a lawyer's office in 1804; and, in 1812, he began his own practice. The Combe's lived together in a large family home at 25 Northumberland Street in the New Town until at least 1833.〔http://digital.nls.uk/directories/browse/pageturner.cfm?id=83400063&mode=transcription〕
