Oswald Berkhan
text:
Oswald Berkhan was a German physician. Born in Blankenburg am Harz, he was one of the initiators of the "Idioten-Anstalt Neuerkerode", which was thought to be a sanctuary for disabled and ill people. He was also a dedicated reformer of special education schools. He was the first person to identify dyslexia, in 1881, though the term "dyslexia" was coined several years later by Rudolf Berlin, who was an ophthalmologist in Stuttgart. Berkhan died in Braunschweig.
