Charles Dickens may have been the first person to write about PSP in The Lazy Tour
of Two Idle Apprentices
chilled, slow, earthy, fixed old man. A cadaverous man of measured speech. An old man who
seemed as unable to wink, as if his eyelids had been nailed to his forehead. An old man whose eyes
two spots of fire had no more motion that [sic] if they had been connected with the back of his skull by
screws driven through it and riveted and bolted outside, among his grey hair. He had come in and shut
the door and he now sat down. He did not bend himself to sit, as other people do, but seemed to sink
bolt upright, as if in water, until the chair stopped him.
