Book excerpt: Anatomy museums around the world showcase preserved corpses in service of education and medical advancement, but they are little-known and have been largely hidden from the public eye. Elizabeth Hallam here investigates the anatomy museum and how it reveals the fascination and fears that surround the dead body in Western societies. Hallam explores the history of these museums and how they operate in the current cultural environment. Their regulated access increasingly clashes with evolving public mores toward the exposed body, as demonstrated by the international popularity of the Body Worlds exhibition. The book examines such related topics as artistic works that employ the images of dead bodies and the larger ongoing debate over the disposal of corpses. Issues such as aesthetics and science, organ and body donations, and the dead body in Western religion and ritual are also discussed here in fascinating depth. The Anatomy Museum unearths a strange and compelling cultural history that investigates the ideas of preservation, human rituals of death, and the spaces that our bodies occupy in this life and beyond.

Book excerpt: The wild success of the traveling Body Worlds exhibition is testimony to the powerful allure that human bodies can have when opened up for display in gallery spaces. But while anatomy museums have shown their visitors much about bodies, they themselves are something of an obscure phenomenon, with their incredible technological developments and complex uses of visual images and the flesh itself remaining largely under researched. This book investigates anatomy museums in Western settings, revealing how they have operated in the often passionate pursuit of knowledge that inspires both fascination and fear. Elizabeth Hallam explores these museums, past and present, showing how they display the human body—whether naked, stripped of skin, completely dissected, or rendered in the form of drawings, three-dimensional models, x-rays, or films. She identifies within anatomy museums a diverse array of related issues—from the representation of deceased bodies in art to the aesthetics of science, from body donation to techniques for preserving corpses and ritualized practices for disposing of the dead. Probing these matters through in-depth study, Anatomy Museum unearths a strange and compelling cultural history of the spaces human bodies are made to occupy when displayed after death.
Download or read book Comparative Anatomy Vol 1 written by C. Th; V. Siebold and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Comparative Anatomy, Vol. 1: Translated From the German, and Edited With Notes and Additions, Recording Thee Recent Progress of the Science In issuing an English translation of the Lehrbuch der vergleichenden Anatomie of Von Siebold and Stannius, any formal account of the work is quite unnecessary. To all Anatomists it is a treatise already well and favorably known, and it has justly been regarded as the most complete and comprehensive work of its kind now extant in any language. The high position and distinguished reputation of its authors have been fully sustained by this portion of their labors. But there are several features in this work which should be mentioned, since by them it is favorably distinguished from all other treatises of the kind that have preceded it. In the text will be found a lucid yet succinct exposition of the anatomical structure of organs, arranged as far as practicable under distinct types. The details on which this typical summary is based, are comprised in notes which are as remarkable for their erudition as for their copiousness; indeed, the utmost care has been taken in the literature of the various subjects treated, and the student will here find the most reliable and at the same time the fullest reference to the bibliography of nearly every subject in Comparative Anatomy. In this way, the work as a whole furnishes a complete dictionary of the science, and will prove invaluable even as a work of suggestion and reference, to those who would pursue any special line of inquiry and research in this department. It may be truly said that the Microscope lies at the foundation of all our best knowledge of anatomy, and especially that of the Invertebrata. This is the case, not only on account of the small size of most of the animals, but because, as Von Siehold has said in his preface, the anatomy of these lower forms is scarcely reliable unless based upon histological investigations.
