The origins of emotion and language from the perspective of developmental neuropsychology

The divided brain evolved to enable focused, detailed attention, in the service of manipulation of the environment, to co-exist with broad, open attention, in the service of understanding the environment, and in particular one’s relationship with fellow creatures. This has important consequences for the nature of human experience, underwriting a practical “I–It” relationship alongside a more intimate “I-thou” relationship with the world, both being elaborated through language. The musical aspects of language, expressive of its embodied, metaphoric and emotional nature as understood by the right hemisphere, are related to the developing sense in the growing child of a separate self which is nonetheless never wholly discrete, and the origins of which remain intersubjective, strongly guided by emotions shared with companions.
