This text is a study of the culture of dissection in the English Renaissance which informed intellectual enquiry in Europe for nearly 200 years. It provides an interdisciplinary framework for conceptualizing the body in literature, art, and the domains of the religious, the moral, the medical and the political.
'A major event in the cultural history of the modern era ... beautifully written, rich in insights, and a pleasure to read. A most absorbing and illuminating work of scholarship.' - Roy Porter, The Wellcome Institute
