+<p>On 22 August 1485 the battle of Bosworth provided
+its victor with the throne of England. Richard III
+died sword in hand and was unceremoniously
+buried in the Grey Friars at Leicester, and on that same
+day the victor, Henry Tudor, was as simply crowned and
+acclaimed by his troops as Henry VII. So began the Tudor
+dynasty in England which was to last until the death of
+Elizabeth in 1603, to be one of the most colourful periods
+of English history and to witness the arrival of the Renaissance
+in England. Later than its manifestation on the
+Continent, but thereby reaping the benefits of continental
+developments, English humanism as a result was soon to
+become no mean rival. The development of English literature
+is too well known for comment, while classical studies,
+and especially those in Greek, were to rival their continental
+counterpart by the end of the first quarter of the sixteenth
+century. Science, however, and more particularly
+medicine, were laggards.</p>
+<p>In those closing years of the fifteenth century which
+ushered in the new Tudor monarchy the art of healing
+derived from two sources, the universities of Oxford and
+Cambridge and the organizations of barbers and surgeons.
+At Oxford medical teaching was organized by the fifteenth
+century, and medicine constituted one of the four faculties
+of the university together with theology, law, and arts. Yet
+at Oxford, as at Cambridge, the medical curriculum was
+long to remain medieval.<a class="fn" id="fri_1" href="#fni_1">[1]</a> Both schools had taken their
+model from Paris, but whereas Parisian medicine had
+<span class="pb" id="Page_2">2</span>
+begun to stir and advance in the fifteenth century, the
+English universities remained somnolent. At Cambridge
+the degree of Doctor of Medicine required altogether
+twelve years of study based upon lectures and discussions
+drawn from medieval sources. While it is true that two
+years of this time were to be spent in the practice of medicine&mdash;seemingly
+a borrowing from the methods of Montpellier&mdash;there
+was no provision for human anatomical study,<a class="fn" id="fri_2" href="#fni_2">[2]</a>
+although this was recognized and demonstrated with some
+slight annual regularity to the Parisian students from the
+latter fifteenth century onward.</p>
+<p>If we turn to the other source of healing, the organizations
+of the barbers and the surgeons, in so far as anatomy
+was concerned the situation was no better and, indeed, it
+may be said to have been worse in view of the obvious
+relationship which ought to have obtained between surgery
+and anatomy. In London the fraternity of barbers existed as
+early as 1308,<a class="fn" id="fri_3" href="#fni_3">[3]</a> and the craft of surgery as a body distinct
+from that of the barbers is recorded in 1368.<a class="fn" id="fri_4" href="#fni_4">[4]</a> Both barbers
+and surgeons sought to establish rules of professional conduct
+for the members of their respective organizations as
+well as a period of time and a curriculum to be satisfied by
+aspirants to barbery or to surgery. Despite the efforts of the
+surgeons to control the practice of surgery, relegating to
+the barbers only the most simple and menial tasks, certain
+of the more ambitious barbers sought to go beyond such
+activities as beard-trimming, cutting, and phlebotomy,
+and this determination gave rise in the first quarter of the
+fifteenth century to the barber-surgeon[, no longer acting in
+the normal occupation of the barber and clearly divorced
+from his old trade.<a class="fn" id="fri_5" href="#fni_5">[5]</a></p>
+<p>Throughout the fifteenth century the barber-surgeons and
+surgeons appear to have remained on fairly amicable terms,
+<span class="pb" id="Page_3">3</span>
+presumably carrying on much the same sort of practice.
+The surgeons, who took precedence on occasions of solemnities
+and festivities, were perhaps somewhat better trained,
+but nowhere is there any record that such training required
+the study of human anatomy.<a class="fn" id="fri_6" href="#fni_6">[6]</a> One learned the trade by
+apprenticeship to a surgeon and by consulting textbooks of
+surgery. From surviving manuscripts it is possible to determine
+what these textual guides were: primarily such as
+those of the celebrated fourteenth-century surgeons, Gui de
+Chauliac and Henri de Mondeville. It is true that late
+medieval surgeons were accustomed to introduce the surgical
+subject by a short anatomical preface, medieval in character,
+the result of cursory and incomplete post-mortem examinations,
+but hardly sufficient to permit a proper grasp of
+anatomy even were that possible of attainment from literary
+sources.</p>
+<p>Hence the opening of the Tudor dynasty in England
+witnessed a medicine and a surgery lacking the essential
+and fundamental knowledge of the human structure. The
+traditions of English medicine were medieval, and medieval
+medicine had not concerned itself especially with
+anatomy. If we compare continental medicine of the same
+period the situation is found to be considerably different. In
+the course of the fifteenth century anatomy was being practised&mdash;diffidently
+to be sure, but nevertheless recognized and
+employed in Paris where the first human dissection, in the
+form of a brief autopsy, had been performed in 1407.<a class="fn" id="fri_7" href="#fni_7">[7]</a> The
+first human anatomy mentioned in the <i>Commentaries</i> of
+the Medical Faculty of Paris was performed in 1477-8 on
+the body of an executed criminal,<a class="fn" id="fri_8" href="#fni_8">[8]</a> but the incident is recorded
+without any suggestion of its being a novelty and so
+raises the possibility that there may have been other dissections
+in previous years. The practice of human anatomy
+<span class="pb" id="Page_4">4</span>
+was even earlier in Italy where there is record of an autopsy
+in 1286,<a class="fn" id="fri_9" href="#fni_9">[9]</a> and in 1316 Mundinus, called the &lsquo;Restorer of
+Anatomy&rsquo;, completed his <i>Anothomia</i> in which he describes
+his systematic dissection of the human body.
+Official decree permitted the practice of human dissection
+in many cities, especially those with medical schools, and
+such official recognition was granted at Bologna in 1405<a class="fn" id="fri_10" href="#fni_10">[10]</a>
+and at Padua in 1429.<a class="fn" id="fri_11" href="#fni_11">[11]</a> Elsewhere similar recognition of
+human dissection was obtained at Montpellier in 1340,<a class="fn" id="fri_12" href="#fni_12">[12]</a> at
+Lerida in 1391,<a class="fn" id="fri_13" href="#fni_13">[13]</a> at Vienna in 1435,<a class="fn" id="fri_14" href="#fni_14">[14]</a> and at T&uuml;bingen in
+1485.<a class="fn" id="fri_15" href="#fni_15">[15]</a> As a consequence, by the opening of the sixteenth
+century a series of anatomical texts, based in varying degrees
+upon human dissection, began to appear, such as those of
+Benedetti, Achillini, and Berengario da Carpi.</p>
+<p>The difference can be explained, at least in part, by the
+fact that on the Continent the classical revival of the Renaissance
+had caused or was causing medieval tradition to be
+replaced by that of classical antiquity. The Renaissance
+represented an effort to revive the spirit and interests of the
+classical world, and classical antiquity had been much interested
+in the structure of man. Especially important was
+the recovery of the Greek language and literature since it
+made possible the recovery of the writings of the great
+classical physicians, notably Hippocrates and Galen, for
+generally speaking classical Greece had shown more interest
+in human anatomy than had classical Rome. This recovery
+had occurred first in Italy, then moved northward
+across the Alps and only in the early sixteenth century did
+it reach England.</p>
+<p>While even earlier some Englishmen had travelled to
+Italy to study the classical revival at its source, and even to
+study the more advanced Italian medicine of Padua, it may
+be said that Thomas Grocyn was the first significant leader
+<span class="pb" id="Page_5">5</span>
+of the new classical movement in England, in particular
+the recovery of Greek. He had managed to learn some
+Greek even in England, but it was not until after a trip to
+Italy in 1488, where he spent two years, that he returned
+to instil Oxford with an enthusiasm for classical Greek
+humanism.<a class="fn" id="fri_16" href="#fni_16">[16]</a> But if Grocyn is of importance as an English
+pioneer in the recovery of Greek and Hellenic studies, of
+far greater importance for the present subject was Grocyn&rsquo;s
+lifelong friend and ultimately the executor of his estate,
+Thomas Linacre.</p>
+<p>Linacre looms very large in the revival of classical medicine
+which gave a general impetus toward a better and
+more modern medicine. Born at Canterbury about 1460 he
+was led ultimately by his studies to Oxford where he became
+a fellow of All Souls College in 1484.<a class="fn" id="fri_17" href="#fni_17">[17]</a> Although by
+this time he could make some beginnings of the study of
+the revived classical literature, and even Greek, at Oxford,
+nevertheless it was still desirable if possible to pursue such
+studies in Italy, and with the opportunity offered him,
+Linacre travelled to that land about 1487, remaining at
+least until 1496,<a class="fn" id="fri_18" href="#fni_18">[18]</a> in which latter year he received the degree
+of Doctor of Medicine from the University of Padua.<a class="fn" id="fri_19" href="#fni_19">[19]</a></p>
+<p>Returned to England, Linacre taught Greek at Oxford.
+Grocyn was his friend, Sir Thomas More his pupil, and
+upon the arrival at Oxford of Erasmus, that great classical
+scholar likewise became an intimate, all of them enthusiasts
+and promoters of Greek studies.</p>
+<p>However, as a physician Linacre had a special bent toward
+the Greek medical classics. This was manifested by
+the appearance in 1517 of his translation of Galen&rsquo;s book
+<i>On Hygiene</i>. In 1519 this was followed by the <i>Method of
+Treatment</i>, in 1521 by the book <i>On Temperaments</i>, and two
+years later by the <i>Natural Faculties</i> and <i>On the Use of Pulses</i>.
+<span class="pb" id="Page_6">6</span>
+In 1524 just after Linacre&rsquo;s death a sixth translation, that of
+Galen&rsquo;s <i>Differences of Symptoms</i> and <i>Causes of Symptoms</i>,
+appeared. As yet very few physicians in England knew
+Greek, but they all knew Latin, and these accurate translations
+into clear, straightforward Latin made a considerable
+portion of Galen&rsquo;s medical writings available for the first
+time. The contrast between medieval medical writings and
+those of Galen which had now been made available
+seemed to emphasize that general Renaissance belief that
+civilization had reached its peak in classical times and that
+much could be gained by a return to classical teachings, in
+this instance the teaching of classical physicians. It is true
+that only the Galenic books on medicine had been translated,
+but they were sufficient to whet the appetite for more,
+and as the new generation of physicians arose, now trained
+in Greek, if the pattern were followed, they would turn to
+the Galenic writings on anatomy in the original language
+as well as to those of Hippocrates.<a class="fn" id="fri_20" href="#fni_20">[20]</a> The first of this younger
+generation who is recorded to have come under this Greek
+medical influence and made this possibility a reality produced
+two remarkable pioneer efforts: the first recorded dissection
+of a human body in England about 1531 and the
+first book on anatomy written in England, published in
+1532, or, reckoned according to the Gregorian calendar,
+1533.</p>
+<p>The person responsible for these two milestones was
+named David Edwardes, or, in the Latin form he employed,
+Edguardus. However, very little is known of his life and
+activities. He was admitted as a scholar to Corpus Christi
+College, Oxford, on 9 August 1517, and the register of
+admissions indicates that he was then fifteen years old and
+a native of Northamptonshire.<a class="fn" id="fri_21" href="#fni_21">[21]</a> He became Bachelor of
+Arts in 1522<a class="fn" id="fri_22" href="#fni_22">[22]</a> although for a time previous to this, in 1521,
+<span class="pb" id="Page_7">7</span>
+he appears briefly to have held the readership in Greek,
+substituting for the regular reader, Edward Wotton, then
+abroad.<a class="fn" id="fri_23" href="#fni_23">[23]</a> In 1525 Edwardes became Master of Arts,<a class="fn" id="fri_24" href="#fni_24">[24]</a> and
+thereafter received a fellowship in the college. He is further
+mentioned in the account book of the college for 1527-8 as
+receiving 38<i>s.</i> 9<i>d.</i>,<a class="fn" id="fri_25" href="#fni_25">[25]</a> presumably for further teaching of Greek.</p>
+<p>Corpus Christi College had been founded in 1515-16
+chiefly through the magnanimity of Richard Foxe, Bishop
+of Winchester, and was provided with its statutes in 1517.
+The founder, strongly interested in the newly revived
+classical learning had provided for a chair of Greek, which,
+as has been mentioned, was briefly held by Edwardes in an
+interim capacity, while the first president of the college,
+John Claymond, was likewise a strong advocate of the new
+learning.</p>
+<p>Perhaps not sufficient stress has been placed upon the
+contribution made by physicians, at least in England, to
+the revival of Greek studies, although it is sometimes difficult
+to determine which of the two disciplines, medicine or
+Greek, was the impulsion to the study of the other. Both
+Linacre and Wotton were serious students of Greek before
+they undertook medical studies, but once embarked upon
+medicine, both of them having studied at Padua, not only
+did they become especially conscious of the failings of
+medieval medicine in contrast to the classical, but the
+philosophical and literary aspects of Galen&rsquo;s writings must
+have caused them to retain a concern with Greek literature
+as a whole even though their primary consideration had
+come to be a single facet of the body of that literature.
+Furthermore, the scientific nature of their interest permitted
+no equivocation in their knowledge of the language. Translations
+of Galen or Hippocrates required an exactitude
+beyond that of purely literary treatises. But whatever the
+<span class="pb" id="Page_8">8</span>
+relevancy of such remarks, it is certainly of significance that
+among the first teachers of Greek in England were Linacre,
+Clement, and Wotton, all physicians, and for our present
+purpose as it relates to David Edwardes, it should be noted
+that two of these men, Clement and Wotton, were
+associated with Corpus Christi College.</p>
+<p>In addition to the stress upon Greek studies which must
+inevitably have led Edwardes to the classical Greek writers
+upon medicine and conducted him along the pathway
+already marked out by Thomas Linacre, there were in the
+college certain possibly more direct influences towards an
+interest in medicine which have already been alluded to. In
+short, John Clement, the early lecturer of Greek<a class="fn" id="fri_26" href="#fni_26">[26]</a> was a
+physician and friend of Linacre as well as a fellow in the
+College of Physicians of London which Linacre had inaugurated
+in 1518, while still another student of medicine
+was Edward Wotton, Reader in Greek and later physician
+to Henry VIII, for whom Edwardes had briefly substituted.</p>
+<p>Still another incentive toward medical study may have
+been a requirement in chapter 25 of the original statutes. In
+accordance with this all fellows of the college who held
+the degree of Master of Arts were required to assume holy
+orders, unless deputed to the study of medicine. It has been
+suggested that recipients of this exception were originally
+expected to attend to the medical needs of the other inmates
+of the college,<a class="fn" id="fri_27" href="#fni_27">[27]</a> and it seems likely that Edwardes was one of
+these <i>medicinae deputati</i>.</p>
+<p>Our next record indicates that he had removed to the
+University of Cambridge where in 1528-9, and upon payment
+of 3<i>s.</i> 4<i>d.</i><a class="fn" id="fri_28" href="#fni_28">[28]</a> and after lecturing publicly upon Galen&rsquo;s
+<i>De Differentiis Febrium</i>, he was incepted in medicine with
+recognition of &lsquo;seven years study of medicine&rsquo;, presumably
+at Oxford.<a class="fn" id="fri_29" href="#fni_29">[29]</a></p>
+<div class="pb" id="Page_9">9</div>
+<p>In his only known book, to be considered later, Edwardes
+informs us that his first practice of medicine had been &lsquo;at
+Bristol, having left my teachers only shortly before and
+begun to swim without any support&rsquo;,<a class="fn" id="fri_30" href="#fni_30">[30]</a> although it is not
+clear whether this represented a brief interlude between
+Oxford and Cambridge or after he had received his degree
+of Doctor of Medicine. Whatever the case may have been,
+the few remaining autobiographical references are to his
+practice in and around Cambridge. As a member of
+the Faculty of Medicine, it is possible that Edwardes was
+criticized for devoting an excessive amount of time to his
+private practice, since in 1530-1 permission was granted
+him to be excused from a statutory requirement of attendance
+at &lsquo;all congregations, masses and exequies&rsquo;.<a class="fn" id="fri_31" href="#fni_31">[31]</a> Nevertheless
+he participated in the examinations of at least two
+students, one in 1537-8<a class="fn" id="fri_32" href="#fni_32">[32]</a> and the other in 1540-1.<a class="fn" id="fri_33" href="#fni_33">[33]</a></p>
+<p>Edwardes&rsquo;s little book, to which reference was made
+above, was published in London in 1532 [O.S.] by Robert
+Redman. It is composed of two treatises of which the first,
+entitled <i>On Symptoms and Prognostications</i> (<i>De Indiciis et
+Praecognitionibus</i>), deals with uroscopy and medical prognostication,
+and since it represents merely the continuation
+of a medieval tradition it is of little importance except, as
+has been said, for its few autobiographical details. In his
+practice of medicine Edwardes appears to have represented,
+as we might expect, a combination of the old and the new.
+While giving support to uroscopy and displaying some
+sympathy toward folk medicine, he also gave allegiance to
+Hippocrates and Galen, and like his continental colleagues
+of this period he was not averse to the introduction of a
+word or even several lines of Greek into his text, so indicating
+his enthusiasm for and his ties with the classical revival.
+Furthermore, he was certainly one of the first English
+<span class="pb" id="Page_10">10</span>
+physicians to appreciate Linacre and terms him &lsquo;the most
+learned physician of his age&rsquo;.<a class="fn" id="fri_34" href="#fni_34">[34]</a></p>
+<p>The second treatise, <i>A Brief but Excellent Introduction to
+Anatomy</i> (<i>In Anatomicen Introductio Luculenta et Brevis</i>), is, as
+has been mentioned, the first work published in England
+which was devoted solely to anatomy, and therefore despite
+its brevity it deserves some consideration in the general
+history of medicine and even greater consideration in that
+of English medicine. Turning our attention now to this
+treatise on anatomy it should be first noted that although
+printed in the same volume with the work on medical
+symptoms and sharing a common title-page with that
+work, the treatise on anatomy has a separate dedication to
+Henry Howard (1517?-1547), Earl of Surrey. It had been
+at the request of Henry VIII that this young nobleman took
+up residence at Windsor and lived there from 1530 to 1532
+as the companion of Henry&rsquo;s son, the Duke of Richmond.
+Since Edwardes had dedicated the first treatise to the Duke
+of Richmond on 21 December 1532, it is not difficult to
+comprehend his choice of the duke&rsquo;s companion for the
+second dedication which bears the date 1 January 1532, or,
+according to the Gregorian calendar, 1533. There is nothing
+remarkable about this latter dedication, which contains
+the usual flattery, except for the final passage. There
+the author remarked upon the ignorance of anatomy among
+physicians, sometimes with lethal results. He recognized
+that the subject of anatomy was a difficult one, hence his
+treatise has been written with brevity and clarity. Later, as
+he promised, if opportunity were to be granted to him he
+would write a more elaborate work.</p>
+<blockquote>
+<p>Hereafter, if God permit, I shall compose a complete book
+of anatomy in which I shall further the opinions of all the
+learned, to which my own opinion will be added. I could have
+<span class="pb" id="Page_11">11</span>
+done this at present but not, however, with the same effort or
+with the form of an introduction preserved. It remains that this
+little book, which we have enlisted in the service of the commonwealth,
+may be pleasing to you, for it recognizes the existence
+of those very few unlearned physicians by whose mistakes
+many perish, from which this fact will be gathered, that no
+parts of the body should be unknown to physicians.</p>
+</blockquote>
+<p>This promise of a more extensive work in which the author
+was to include his independent anatomical observations,
+presumably based on further human dissection, appears not
+to have been fulfilled or, at any rate, there is no record of
+any such later and more extended anatomical treatise by
+Edwardes.</p>
+<p>The text of this <i>Introduction to Anatomy</i> fills no more than
+fifteen small pages, and its very brevity must have made it
+virtually useless; even the author says that it &lsquo;is indeed a
+slight work&rsquo;. The plan of presentation is that which had
+been popularized by Mundinus and was required by the
+relative speeds with which the different parts of the body
+succumbed to putrefaction during the course of dissection.
+Thus Edwardes first describes the lower venter, that is, the
+abdomen, abdominal cavity, and pelvis, next the thorax,
+and finally the brain and nervous system. Within his very
+brief presentation no mention is made of the extremities
+while, relative to the limits of the discussion, a preponderance
+of attention has been devoted to what were considered
+the organs of nutrition and blood manufacture.</p>
+<p>The anatomical nomenclature is mildly astonishing,
+especially when one considers the time and place of composition.
+But if one considers that Edwardes was sufficiently
+learned in Greek to act as Reader in Greek at his college for
+a short period, it will not be too amazing to find him somewhat
+scornful of the terms employed by those he calls
+<span class="pb" id="Page_12">12</span>
+&lsquo;Barbarians&rsquo;, that is, the European school influenced by Moslem
+medical writers, chiefly through the <i>Canon</i> of Avicenna,
+which employed an anatomical terminology drawn from
+Latin and from curious hybrid forms partly Latin, partly
+Greek, partly Arabic and in some parts from Hebrew.
+Edwardes, on the contrary, employs classical Greek terminology
+as, for example, omentum rather than the medieval <i>zirbus</i>
+and mesenteric in preference to <i>meseraic</i>. In so far as his
+description extends, his nomenclature is as &lsquo;modern&rsquo;, if not
+more so, than that of some of the more learned anatomists
+on the Continent. Yet, while his vocabulary may be more
+modern his anatomy is not. Indeed, in the introduction he
+remarked, as has been mentioned, that in the future he
+hoped to write a more extensive work &lsquo;to which my own
+opinion will be added&rsquo;. By implication, then, in this first
+brief treatise he had drawn upon earlier authorities, and
+while we might expect that this student of Greek would
+turn to Galen and Hippocrates this is true only in part. The
+liver as he describes it is medieval, the three-chambered heart
+is Aristotelian, derived from those &lsquo;Barbarians&rsquo; he scorned.</p>
+<p>While the treatise is noteworthy as the first work written
+in England solely devoted to anatomy, the text intrinsically
+is of little further value except for one statement referring to
+the emulgent, or renal veins. &lsquo;In the body of that one whom
+we dissected very recently the left branch had a higher place
+of origin. Very often, however, the opposite occurs, so that
+the right emulgent vein is carried higher in the body.&rsquo; Here
+we have the first reference to human dissection in England,
+in which, moreover, the anatomist observing through his
+own eyes rather than those of past authorities, noted a variation
+from the commonly given description of the emulgent
+veins, a description derived from Galen&rsquo;s anatomical studies
+on animals.</p>
+<div class="pb" id="Page_13">13</div>
+<p>Little more can be said about Edwardes. He seems to
+have died about 1542,<a class="fn" id="fri_35" href="#fni_35">[35]</a> and perhaps this explains why the
+larger work was never to be published. Perhaps, had he
+remained at Oxford, he might have established an anatomical
+tradition, and so provided the influence which his
+book was not to have. Today only one copy of this little
+treatise is known, that in the library of the British Museum,
+and no consideration appears to have been paid to it from
+Edwardes&rsquo;s day to the present. However, its virtual extinction
+was not the result of hard usage by students such as that
+which determined the almost complete annihilation of
+Vesalius&rsquo; <i>Tabulae Anatomicae</i>. As has been said, no contemporary
+mentioned Edwardes, despite the fact that his
+book was published in London. The edition must have
+been a small one, and copies were not likely to have been
+preserved as other and better works on anatomy began to be
+imported from the Continent.</p>
+<p>Meanwhile the universities continued their drowsy course
+so far unaffected in any way by the efforts of an alumnus of
+one of them. The barber-surgeons and surgeons appear to
+have been equally unproductive of anything new, still leaning
+upon earlier continental writers. Yet a few individuals
+recognized the need for improvement. Well before the surgeons
+of England received official encouragement for anatomical
+study the surgeons of Edinburgh had asked for
+and obtained bodies for dissection. On 1 July 1505 the
+magistrates of Edinburgh granted a Seal of Cause to the
+Guild of Surgeons and Barbers, and this was confirmed by
+James IV on 13 October 1506. Among the clauses regulating
+the practice of the barbers and the surgeons is one
+giving them the body of one felon each year for an anatomy:</p>
+<blockquote>
+<p>... and that we may have anis [once] in the yeir ane condampnit
+man efter he be deid to mak antomell of, quhairthraw we
+<span class="pb" id="Page_14">14</span>
+may haif experience, ilk ane to instrict vtheris ... and that na
+barbour, maister nor seruand, within this burgh hantt [practise]
+vse nor exerce the craft of Surregenrie without he be expert and
+knaw perfytelie the thingis abouewritten.<a class="fn" id="fri_36" href="#fni_36">[36]</a></p>
+</blockquote>
+<p>Edinburgh, therefore, was the cradle of anatomical study in
+the British Isles. In England Thomas Linacre had founded
+the College of Physicians of London in 1518 with the idea
+of its being a select body of physicians to raise medical
+standards and maintain them through its power of licensing
+to practice. The need of more modern surgical texts was
+indicated by the publication in 1525 of a translation of the
+work of the late fifteenth-century German surgeon, Hieronymus
+Brunschwig, which contained a brief section on
+anatomy, but there appears to have been no attempt to produce
+a new and up-to-date surgery in England. The fact
+was that the more advanced books from continental Europe
+proceeded to smother any continuance of independent
+native efforts, and in the field of anatomy this makes the
+early appearance of David Edwardes&rsquo;s little treatise an
+astonishing chronological anomaly in the history of English
+anatomical writing. The importance of anatomy was now
+to be recognized, but it would be a long time before another
+native English treatise on the subject was published.</p>
+<p>The introduction of the officially recognized, and even
+encouraged, study of human anatomy into England was the
+result of influences brought to bear from several sources: the
+desire of King Henry VIII to improve the practice of medicine
+and surgery in England and possibly, too, with
+thoughts for a higher quality of military surgery; and the
+desire, as well, of some of the more thoughtful surgeons, of
+whom Thomas Vicary was probably one. So it was that
+in 1540 the Company of Barbers was united with the
+Fraternity of Surgeons to form what was called the United
+<span class="pb" id="Page_15">15</span>
+Company of Barber-Surgeons of which Thomas Vicary
+was named Master in 1541, an event handsomely commemorated
+in a painting commissioned from Hans Holbein
+the younger.<a class="fn" id="fri_37" href="#fni_37">[37]</a></p>
+<p>In the Charter by which the union was officially sanctioned,
+a statement is to be found which was to be of
+particular importance to the advancement of anatomical
+knowledge:</p>
+<blockquote>
+<p>the sayd maysters or governours of the mistery and comminaltie
+of barbours and surgeons of London, and their successours
+yerely for ever after their sad discrecions at their free liberte and
+pleasure shal and maie have and take without contradiction
+foure persons condempned adiudged and put to deathe for
+feloni by the due order of the kynges lawe of thys realme for
+anatomies without any further sute or labour to be made to the
+kynges highnes his heyres or successours for the same. And to
+make incision of the same deade bodies or otherwyse to order
+the same after their said discrecions at their pleasures for their
+further and better knowlage instruction insight learnyng and
+experience in the sayd scyence or facultie of surgery.<a class="fn" id="fri_38" href="#fni_38">[38]</a></p>
+</blockquote>
+<p>It is of interest to note that very soon after the Charter had
+been granted, Thomas Vicary approached the Lord Mayor
+and Aldermen of London to make sure that the Barber-Surgeons
+should receive the bodies of the felons for anatomical
+study. It would seem that the Court of Aldermen were
+not sure how they should direct their Sheriffs, for the
+Minutes of the Court for 14 December 1540 state:</p>
+<blockquote>
+<p>... Item, Master Laxton &amp; Master Bowes, Shreves of this
+Citye, prayed the Advyse of this howse for &amp; concernying the

+</blockquote>
+<p>With human dissection material assured, the United
+Company proceeded to appoint a Reader of Anatomy, the
+first perhaps being Thomas Vicary, and although the intervening
+records of the company are not complete, it is
+known that in 1546 Dr. John Caius, lately returned from
+Padua, where he had been acquainted with and even lived
+for a time with the celebrated anatomist Andreas Vesalius,
+was appointed and held the position of Reader of Anatomy
+for the next seventeen years. In his brief autobiography
+Caius refers to these dissections which he performed &lsquo;for
+almost twenty years&rsquo;, and adds, &lsquo;By the wish of the most
+illustrious prince Henry VIII, King of England, I performed
+them in London before the surgeons; among the
+physicians at that time there was no dissection.&rsquo;<a class="fn" id="fri_40" href="#fni_40">[40]</a> It may be
+assumed, however, that by &lsquo;physicians&rsquo; Caius was referring
+to those of London rather than to those of the universities.
+Nevertheless, his remark helps to explain the lack of anatomical
+works which might have competed with those of
+the Continent. The physicians, although better trained in
+languages than the surgeons and, we may assume, literary
+exposition, were as yet not interested in the subject of
+anatomy.</p>
+<p>Nevertheless it does seem somewhat incredible that the
+physicians were so late in taking up the practice of human
+dissection. While it is always dangerous to exceed the
+limits of evidence, this peculiar situation in regard to the
+College of Physicians of London requires that attention be
+called to a statute of the college reproduced by Munk who
+gives it the date 1569-70.<a class="fn" id="fri_41" href="#fni_41">[41]</a> According to this authority, the
+terms employed in the statute, reproduced below in translation,
+<span class="pb" id="Page_17">17</span>
+suggest that human anatomical dissection was already
+being employed by the physicians of the college at the time,
+although it seems impossible to determine whether or not
+the reference is to a period earlier than 1565 when Elizabeth
+granted them four bodies annually for anatomical purposes.<a class="fn" id="fri_42" href="#fni_42">[42]</a>
+However, it seems unlikely that the college, which was so
+concerned with the enforcement of laws concerning medicine
+would itself perform an illegal action and therefore
+that Elizabeth&rsquo;s grant to the college most likely introduced
+it to human dissection. Furthermore, one wonders just how
+frequently the college employed its new right, and in this
+respect it is interesting to note that there is no reference
+either to Elizabeth&rsquo;s grant or to any dissection at all in the
+<i>Annals</i> of the college as written by John Caius.<a class="fn" id="fri_43" href="#fni_43">[43]</a></p>
+<p>Although the study of human anatomy was now officially
+recognized and regularly pursued, at least in London,
+it would be incorrect to believe that native English anatomical
+writings would be forthcoming to continue the course
+modestly established by David Edwardes. The apathy or
+even hostility of physicians toward anatomical studies was
+an obstacle experienced earlier on the Continent and referred
+to by Vesalius who contributed no small share to the
+growth of anatomy&rsquo;s respectability in the eyes of physicians.
+However, the time lag between the Continent and England
+had resulted in a disregard of anatomical studies by English
+physicians at the very times when continental physicians
+had begun to interest themselves in the subject and publish
+anatomical studies. As a result it was inevitable that for
+such Englishmen as were interested in anatomy it was easier
+to import the more advanced and elaborate continental
+texts, and dependence on such alien works was for long to
+be the regular pattern. But even with these advanced, contemporary
+works available, the practice continued among
+<span class="pb" id="Page_18">18</span>
+the surgeons of republishing old and obsolete anatomico-surgical
+treatises of late medieval times. If such a practice
+was dictated by an elementary knowledge, certainly the
+continuance of it would not lead to any development.</p>
+<p>In 1544 a Flemish engraver named Thomas Lambrit,
+better known under his pseudonym of Geminus, engraved
+on copper a series of anatomical figures plagiarized from
+the <i>Fabrica</i> and <i>Epitome</i> of Vesalius. Geminus displayed the
+plates, which are of considerable artistic merit, indeed,
+the first of high quality to be produced in England, to King
+Henry VIII. That monarch, aware of the need of anatomical
+books to bolster the anatomical teaching now in progress,
+urged Geminus to publish his engravings. Never one
+to scorn the chance of gain, Geminus proceeded to follow
+this royal advice in the succeeding year (1545) and added
+to his plates a dedication to the king and the text of
+Vesalius&rsquo; <i>Epitome</i>.<a class="fn" id="fri_44" href="#fni_44">[44]</a> For some peculiar reason the completely
+innocent John Caius has occasionally been blamed as the
+impetus to this plagiarized publication despite the fact that
+Geminus states plainly in his preface that Henry VIII was
+responsible for his decision to publish.</p>
+<p>While the illustrations plagiarized from Vesalius may
+have been of some pedagogical value, the text of the
+<i>Epitome</i> certainly was no anatomical manual, and the fact
+that it was in Latin, which many if not most of the surgeons
+could not read, gave it even less value.</p>
+<p>It was perhaps at least partly for these reasons that
+Thomas Vicary appears to have issued in 1548 an anatomical
+text in English entitled <i>A Profitable Treatise of the Anatomie
+of Mans Body</i>. No copy of it is known to exist today,
+and its existence is realized only through mention of it on
+the title-page of an edition published in 1577 by the surgeons
+of St. Bartholomew&rsquo;s Hospital and a reference to it in
+<span class="pb" id="Page_19">19</span>
+1565 by another surgeon, John Halle, who refers to Vicary
+as &lsquo;the firste that euer wrote a treatyse of Anatomye in
+English (to the profite of his brethren chirurgiens and the
+helpe of younge studientes) as farre as I can learne&rsquo;.<a class="fn" id="fri_45" href="#fni_45">[45]</a>
+However, to refer to the &lsquo;profite&rsquo; and &lsquo;helpe&rsquo; to be obtained
+from Vicary&rsquo;s treatise is to reveal the deplorable
+state of anatomical studies in England at the time and to
+cause one to wonder if Halle had read by way of contrast
+the continental writings of that period. It seems very likely
+that what has been termed Vicary&rsquo;s anatomy was nothing
+other than a copy of a manuscript, presently in the Wellcome
+Historical Medical Library in London, dated 1392
+and merely a compilation of Lanfranc, Henri de Mondeville,
+and Gui de Chauliac, the most recent of them dead
+in 1367. Thus not only was Vicary&rsquo;s work not based upon
+dissection, except for a secondhand account of crude fourteenth-century
+autopsy, but it represented a definite case of
+retrogression.</p>
+<p>The next anatomical publication in England was a new
+edition in 1553 of Geminus&rsquo;s plagiarized anatomical plates,
+but this time with an English text by Nicholas Udall, best
+known as the author of the first important English comedy,
+<i>Ralph Roister Doister</i>, and utterly lacking in knowledge
+of anatomy. In consequence one may correctly hazard that
+this work, published with commercial rather than pedagogical
+motives, would not contribute much to knowledge
+of anatomy in England, even though the text was
+now in English. It is true that Vesalius&rsquo; descriptions of his
+illustrations were put into English, the first translation into
+English of any portion of the <i>Fabrica</i>, but the text which
+now replaced the <i>Epitome</i> of the earlier edition of 1545, like
+Vicary&rsquo;s work, is predominantly indebted to that same
+fourteenth-century manuscript compiled from the writings
+<span class="pb" id="Page_20">20</span>
+of late medieval surgeons. Finally, the sheets of this work
+were reissued in 1559 with a new preface written by Richard
+Eden which aimed to delude the public into the belief
+that the publication had been revised.</p>
+<p>About this time, too, a small series of anatomical fugitive
+sheets with superimposed flaps made their appearance
+in England. One, at least, had two leaves of English text to
+explain the woodcut and is nearly always discovered bound
+into the 1559 reissue of Geminus&rsquo;s book. The fugitive
+sheets, like their continental predecessors and followers,
+added very little to anatomical knowledge and must have
+been for popular consumption.</p>
+<p>If we turn now for a moment to give consideration to
+continental activity during the same period, there is no
+difficulty in observing the superiority of publications
+abroad. In 1543 the <i>Fabrica</i> of Vesalius was published, in
+1545 the <i>De Dissectione</i> of Rivi&egrave;re and Estienne, in 1555 the
+revised and much improved second edition of the <i>Fabrica</i>,
+in 1556 <i>Composicion del Cuerpo Humano</i> of Valverde, and in
+1559 the <i>De Re Anatomica</i> of Colombo. It is little wonder
+that these foreign texts overwhelmed the English market
+and prevented any initiative which might have led to the
+publication of any but the most rudimentary manuals, presuming
+that there was in England anyone who had pursued
+the study of anatomy sufficiently to be in a position
+to compete with the continental authorities. On the other
+hand, the superiority of the foreign publications owed part
+of that superiority to the fact that they were the work of
+much better educated physicians who had undertaken the
+study of anatomy, whereas in England the subject was yet
+very largely under the control of the less learned and less
+articulate surgeons who thought of anatomy more as a
+limited body of technical information required for surgery
+<span class="pb" id="Page_21">21</span>
+rather than a field of knowledge to be studied for itself and
+capable of indefinite expansion. David Edwardes had sought
+to set medicine on the right course, but to no avail. While in
+time the Faculties of Medicine in the two universities would
+pay some lip-service to anatomy, yet some considerable time
+was to pass before they became genuinely interested in the
+subject.</p>
+<p>In 1549 a royal examination of the Oxford statutes led
+to a declaration that they were &lsquo;antiquated, semi-barbarous
+and obscure&rsquo;, and new ones were substituted. In regard to
+medicine it was declared that before receiving the degree of
+Bachelor of Medicine the student must see two anatomical
+dissections, and himself perform two dissections before receiving
+his licence to practice. Before receiving the degree
+of Doctor of Medicine he was required to observe two or
+three more dissections.<a class="fn" id="fri_46" href="#fni_46">[46]</a> This, however, seems more likely
+to have been the ideal than the reality and echoes a similar
+but normally unfulfilled requirement in fifteenth-century
+Paris. It is more likely that the frequency with which anatomy
+was conducted at Oxford would have depended upon
+the particular interest of the Professor of Medicine, such as
+Walter Bayley (1529-93) who became Regius Professor of
+Medicine in 1561 and who at his death left his &lsquo;skeleton of
+bones in Oxford&rsquo; to his successor in the chair.<a class="fn" id="fri_47" href="#fni_47">[47]</a> However,
+no Reader in Anatomy was appointed at Oxford until
+1624. Indeed, the founder of the readership, Richard Tomlins,
+recognized the situation in his grant by noting that the
+study of anatomy was</p>
+<blockquote>
+<p>more particularly necessary for the faculties and Artes of
+Phisicke and Chirurgery, the perfection whereof doth much
+avayle to the safety health and comfort of the whole Commonwealth
+in the conservation of theire persons: And that there is
+as yet in neither of the Vniversities of this Kingdome (thoughe
+<span class="pb" id="Page_22">22</span>
+otherwise the most florisshing of the whole Christian world)
+any such Anatomy Lecture founded or established.<a class="fn" id="fri_48" href="#fni_48">[48]</a></p>
+</blockquote>
+<p>If we may believe John Caius, writing after the middle of
+the century, the first early enthusiasm for Greek studies had
+worn off among physicians. Caius, himself a very competent
+Grecist, wrote in advocacy of the study of Greek
+medicine in the Greek language, that</p>
+<blockquote>
+<p>as each is more capable in his own tongue so he is consistent and
+always remains himself which contributes much to clarity, since
+each tongue has its own idioms and inexpressible terms which
+when translated do not retain the same emphasis or a like grace.
+In short, translators some times do not understand certain
+things, elsewhere they fall asleep, do not retain exactness of
+diction, restrain freedom, and since we are all human and so
+desirous of variety, from time to time they slip so that not only
+may there be obscurity but even ambiguity.</p>
+</blockquote>
+<p>Nevertheless, wrote Caius, in his day &lsquo;everyone turns to the
+Latin editions and no one touches the Greek&rsquo;.<a class="fn" id="fri_49" href="#fni_49">[49]</a></p>
+<p>It is certainly true that after that first generation of men
+like Linacre, there was little interest in England in the
+original language of Galen and Hippocrates. The surgeons,
+certainly, knew no Greek, and the physicians were not
+interested in anatomy. There was to be little controversy,
+therefore, as to the meaning of any of Galen&rsquo;s anatomical
+terms and less likelihood of investigating and disputing
+Galenic assertions. Acceptance without demur of the
+translation was a long step toward unquestioned acceptance
+of the content of the original. Hence it appears that by the
+middle of the sixteenth century the authority of Galen in
+Latin dress, or of his commentators, was not very likely to
+be opposed. On the Continent it had been instances of
+questions and opposition which had brought about anatomical
+<span class="pb" id="Page_23">23</span>
+advancement by resort to the only arbiter of doubts
+and questions, that is, the cadaver.</p>
+<p>With conditions as they have been portrayed it is no
+wonder, therefore, that little initiative was displayed in
+England. The most popular of the foreign works in England,
+as on the Continent, appears to have been the <i>De Re
+Anatomica</i> of Colombo which held its position until well
+after the opening of the seventeenth century. It was excellent
+for its time, not certainly the equal of the <i>Fabrica</i>, but on the
+other hand much cheaper to purchase, less bulky to hold,
+and not so detailed as to be confusing. It was probably this
+particular work in its several editions which more than any
+other prevented the appearance of a native English anatomical
+text.</p>
+<p>In 1578 John Banister published a book entitled <i>The
+Historie of Man, sucked from the Sappe of the most approued
+Anathomistes</i>. The title indicates the character of the work,
+drawn from continental authorities, and especially from
+Colombo, despite the fact that Banister was Reader in Anatomy
+to the United Company and therefore in a position to
+undertake independent researches. Indeed, a contemporary
+painting shows Banister in his capacity as Reader standing
+beside an open copy of Colombo&rsquo;s <i>De Re Anatomica</i>.<a class="fn" id="fri_50" href="#fni_50">[50]</a></p>
+<p>It is clearly apparent that English anatomy in the Tudor
+period remained far behind that of the Continent, at least
+on the basis of such books as were published in England,
+and thereby renders that modest but early effort of David
+Edwardes all the more curious.</p>
+<p>Edwardes, it must be recalled, had presented his brief
+treatise in the same form which was being employed on the
+Continent, and we may assume that it represented his
+method. What he did was to ignore medieval writers and
+return directly to Galen, the supreme authority of that age,
+<span class="pb" id="Page_24">24</span>
+the &lsquo;Prince of Physicians&rsquo;. Coupled with this, he had begun
+to dissect, first, it may be assumed, for better comprehension
+of Galen but ultimately by Edwardes or his successors,
+discrepancies between the text of Galen and the observed
+anatomy would at once have indicated the classic error and
+the path to knowledge. Such was the course of continental
+development, but English anatomy of the period was faced
+by an insurmountable obstacle.</p>
+<p>Whereas the medical faculties of continental universities
+came to accept anatomy, such was not to be the case with
+English medicine until well into the seventeenth century.
+As a result, anatomy was not an end in itself but rather a
+limited field of knowledge learned in so far as it might be
+usefully applied in surgery.</p>
+<p>There were, of course, some Englishmen whose training
+and knowledge were superior to the quality demonstrated
+in English texts, men who had had Paduan training such
+as Caius and Harvey. But even Caius remained a Galenist
+when continental anatomy had become Vesalian, and
+Harvey, despite his thoroughly scientific attitude in respect
+to physiology, remained very conservative in his approach
+to purely anatomical problems, seeking authority not only
+in Galen but in the even more ancient Aristotle.</p>
+<p>Under these conditions it seems remarkable that such
+great contributions were made to physiology in seventeenth-century
+England. The contributions of Harvey, Boyle,
+Hooke, and Lower form an amazing contrast to the static
+and even retrograde position of anatomy in the preceding
+century. In 1565 John Halle, a distinguished surgeon, published
+his <i>Anatomy or Dissection of the Body of Man</i> which
+was largely a translation of the surgery of Guido Lanfranc
+who died in 1315, yet fifty-one years later Harvey had
+arrived at the circulation of the blood.<a class="fn" id="fri_51" href="#fni_51">[51]</a></p>

+MS., <i>On College Affairs</i>, pp. 55-56: &lsquo;Among our elders the Anatomical
+Lecture was considered of such importance that according to everyone&rsquo;s
+recollection very few Fellows sought to be excused from that duty except
+for very grave reasons. However, lest it happen that frequent dispensations
+of that sort should become usual and customary and thence, so it was

+to prevent it through the statutes, by slight penalties in the beginning and

+London, 1684, pp. 34-37: &lsquo;Elizabeth by the grace of God, Queen of
+England, France &amp; Ireland, defender of the faith &amp;c. Greetings to all
+those reached by the present letter. Our father of noble memory Henry
+VIII, formerly King of England, among certain other decrees for the
+well-being and usefulness of his kingdom of England, especially watching
+over the health of his subjects, through his Letters Patent instituted in
+perpetuity a College of certain grave men of medicine who practised
+medicine publicly in his City of London and its suburbs within seven
+miles of that city. In the name of the President of the College and the
+Fellowship of the faculty of medicine of London, he incorporated them in
+the corporate and political body, and he granted to the same President and
+College of Fellowship aforesaid and to its successors diverse liberties
+and privileges. Our same father not only confirmed those Letters Patent and
+all things contained in them through his <i>Senatus Consultum</i> or Parliament
+held in the fourteenth and fifteenth years of his reign, but also he increased
+and amplified the same statute in many ways. Since our said father
+granted this pious design for the well-being of the commonwealth,
+assuredly day by day there will be manifestly great advancement if to the
+aforesaid President, College or Fellowship and their successors forever we
+grant what is especially necessary for those professing medicine, certain
+human bodies annually for dissection. Know that we, not only deservedly
+renewing the famous institution of our said father, but also considering
+the responsibility of our royal office to provide as much as possible for the
+assured health and security of our subjects, of our special grace and from
+our certain knowledge and genuine affection for our people, we grant
+presently and for our heirs and successors to the aforesaid President of the
+College or Fellowship of the aforesaid faculty of medicine of London,
+and their successors or assigns, that they may have and receive annually
+and forever in future times, at one time or at different times of the year, at
+the discretion, desire and liberty of the aforesaid President during the time
+of his existence and of his successors, one, two, three or four human bodies
+for dissection and anatomization, which have been condemned and executed
+according to the common law of this kingdom for theft, homicide
+or whatever felony, or have been condemned and executed according to
+the common law of this kingdom for theft, homicide or whatever felony
+within the County of Middlesex or within the aforesaid City of London
+or elsewhere within sixteen miles of the aforesaid City in whatever
+County.... And that it be permitted to the same President of the College
+and aforesaid Fellowship and their successors and whatever others of their
+assigns, professors or experts, to dissect and to divide the same bodies or
+otherwise according to their will and judgment, with that reverence
+which ought to be granted to human flesh, for the increment of knowledge
+of medicine and experiment of the same, and for the health of
+our liegemen without the contradiction of anyone. And this without
+rendering or paying any one any sum of money or any sums of money
+for the same. Provided always that when from time to time an anatomy
+of this sort has been undertaken and completed that the aforesaid bodies
+be given funeral and burial at the expense of the President and his
+successors....

+years ever a more conservative and literal Galenist, and his anatomical
+lectures to the surgeons were described by Bullein in his <i>Little Dialogue</i> of
+1579 as &lsquo;reveiling ... the hidden jewels and precious treasures of Cl.
+Galenus&rsquo;. It seems likely that, whatever anatomical lectures were given in
+the College of Physicians, they must, at least for a time, have been of like
+character. In the <i>Annals</i> of the college as written by Caius we find that as
+late as the year 1559 a certain Joannes Geynes was subject to disciplinary
+action because of his assertion that Galen had been guilty of error. He was
+required to state that &lsquo;I Joannes Geynes confess that Galen did not err
+in those things for which I criticized him&rsquo;, <i>Annales a Collegio Condito</i>,
+pp. 53-54, in <i>The Works of John Caius</i>, ed. Venn, Cambridge, 1912.
+Such conservatism carried over to the study of anatomy would certainly
+have been detrimental to any advancement of knowledge.</div>

+Hall in 1581; of small size and painted by an unknown artist
+on two pieces of paper joined down the middle, it is nevertheless sufficiently
+detailed for us to discover that Banister is using the octavo edition of
+Colombo&rsquo;s work printed in Paris in 1572. The portrait is now laid down
+in an album of anatomical drawings, also painted for Banister, which was
+formerly owned by William Hunter and is now preserved in the Hunterian
+Museum, Glasgow. The drawings consist of views of the skeleton, the
+superficial muscles, nerves and veins drawn in colour on a dark ground with
+some skill. Singer, in his <i>Evolution of Anatomy</i>, London, 1925, p. 174, suggests
+that the skeletal figures are probably the earliest prepared in England
+which were actually drawn from the bones. This could well be true, but
+Banister based his drawing of the nerves on a plate of Charles Estienne, 1545,
+and his figures of the superficial muscles and veins are possibly based on Valverde.
+Other relics of Banister can be seen at Cambridge. The University
+Library has a book-like casket containing a small ivory skeleton and the
+<i>&eacute;corch&eacute;</i> figure of a man given to the library by Banister in 1591. King&rsquo;s College
+Library has a copy of <i>The Historie of Man</i> presented by the author in 1596.</div>
+<div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fni_51" href="#fri_51">[51]</a>Books printed on the Continent were freely available in England,
+and it could be argued that this was one reason why so few anatomical
+texts were published in the Tudor period. It has already been noted that
+Colombo&rsquo;s <i>De Re Anatomica</i> in the octavo edition of Paris, 1572, was
+used by Banister in his visceral lecture. This could well have been the text
+recommended to apprentices of Barber-Surgeon&rsquo;s Hall. Such imported
+books were, of course, published in Latin and were therefore suitable to the
+students of the College of Physicians and those of Oxford or of Cambridge.
+It seems likely that the students at Barber-Surgeons&rsquo; Hall created a demand
+for more simple texts in the vernacular and this is surely the reason for the
+continued popularity of such books as Thomas Vicary&rsquo;s archaic text.</div>

+<h3 id="c3"><i>To the Distinguished and Illustrious
+<br />Henry, Earl of Surrey.</i>
+<br /><i>David Edwardes, Physician, Sends Greetings</i></h3>
+<p>How often, Henry, I have recalled the honourable
+achievements of those noble dukes, in what
+great honour all Englishmen held your grandfather
+during his lifetime for his remarkable ability and
+happy successes in warfare, as well as his extraordinary
+prudence in the administration of civil affairs; and also at
+present how expertly everything that pertains to us English
+is daily managed by your famous father. I cannot sufficiently
+admire your family, but not so much for those reasons as
+because I see you established above what can be said for
+many other young men in this age, and turning your mind
+so seriously to those things which will render it better. I am
+by no means certain whether I ought to ascribe this to the
+benefit of that stock from which you have been brought
+forth to us, whether to the gods who through you smile
+upon and favour us English. However it may be, let us
+hope what has occurred will be to the advantage of our
+commonwealth, and that the more so since you have pursued
+worth-while things for so long a time. Thus you will
+approach the next age better prepared, and good habits will
+meanwhile strengthen your mind so that later you will not
+easily fall into worse. But the more you may be strengthened
+by counsel and prudence, with confidence placed in your
+family, so much the better guidance will Norfolk have when
+you succeed as heir to your father&rsquo;s estates. Meanwhile how
+<span class="pb" id="Page_54">54</span>
+much more useful you will be to your people as Earl of Surrey,
+and finally so much the more will all Englishmen desire you
+to undertake the affairs of the commonwealth. There is no
+doubt that you can achieve all these things which will be to
+the increase of your honours and to the honour of your family.</p>
+<p>As your talent and gravity of character promise, so we
+have great hope that you will be like your father and grandfather.
+I wish you both the greatest successes and the most
+fruitful increase of all the best things. And once more I wish
+that this whole year from its beginning may be happy for you
+and yours. With this augury I dedicate to you this our introduction
+to anatomy. For as this part of the art of medicine
+is not known to all, because it is something very difficult
+to comprehend, it requires an easy arrangement by which
+readers, as if led by the hand to it, may lean upon it. This is
+indeed a slight work, but wholly useful for all physicians and
+surgeons, because it explains many things briefly. It contains
+nothing obscure, nothing elaborate, very readily accessible to
+the talents of all those who are neither dull nor ill-adapted to
+matters of knowledge. In this, if anything differs from the
+common opinions of physicians, let no one be astonished
+because the learned do not believe the same in these matters.</p>
+<p>Hereafter, if God permit, I shall compose a complete
+book of anatomy in which I shall further the opinions of
+all the learned, to which my own opinion will be added.
+I could have done this at present but not, however, with the
+same effort or with the form of an introduction preserved. It
+remains that this little book, which we have enlisted in
+the service of the commonwealth, may be pleasing to you,
+for it recognizes the existence of those very few unlearned
+physicians by whose mistakes many perish, from which this
+fact will be gathered, that no parts of the body should be
+unknown to physicians. Farewell. Cambridge. 1 January.</p>

+<h2 id="c4"><span class="small">THE INTRODUCTION TO</span>
+<br />ANATOMY OF
+<br />DAVID EDWARDES
+<br />ENGLISHMAN</h2>
+<p>The whole lower venter&mdash;for thence it is necessary to
+begin the dissection of the human body because that
+part putrefies very readily&mdash;from the outer skin to the
+peritoneum is called <span class="small">EPIGASTRION</span> by the Greeks and
+<i>mirach</i><a class="fn" id="fr_1" href="#fn_1">[1]</a> by the Barbarians, of which the following are the
+parts.</p>
+<p>The superficial skin which covers the whole body is completely
+insensitive. The skin lying and stretched under the
+very thin and superficial skin is sensitive.<a class="fn" id="fr_2" href="#fn_2">[2]</a> The Greeks call
+it <span class="small">HYPODERMA</span>. A kind of fat occupies the whole venter
+and is spread under the sensitive skin except for the middle.</p>
+<p>A sinewy and thin membrane immediately follows this.
+A membrane taking origin from the muscles is subjoined
+firmly to this where a straight line appears in the middle.<a class="fn" id="fr_3" href="#fn_3">[3]</a></p>
+<p>Two oblique descending muscles<a class="fn" id="fr_4" href="#fn_4">[4]</a> lie under these toward
+the lowest venter. The oblique ascending muscles<a class="fn" id="fr_5" href="#fn_5">[5]</a>
+are placed under these. Two rectus muscles have a close
+<span class="pb" id="Page_56">56</span>
+relationship. And lowest of all are the transverse muscles.<a class="fn" id="fr_6" href="#fn_6">[6]</a>
+Therefore there are these eight for which there are nearly
+individual sinewy coverings by which they are distinguished
+from one another.</p>
+<p>An aponeurosis, or rather a thick and firm membrane, is
+stretched under them which some falsely call the peritoneum.
+So much for the epigastrium and its parts.</p>
+<p>Certainly the peritoneum is a sinewy part, soft to the
+touch, of ordinary firmness, occupying the whole venter,
+and resting under the aponeurosis or membrane which I
+mentioned. The Greeks gave that name to it. The Barbarians
+call it <i>siphac</i>.</p>
+<p>The <i>zirbus</i> or omentum is extended under the peritoneum.
+The <i>zirbus</i> is a kind of fat derived from sinewy
+threads and the slender adipose substance of the nerves; it is
+less thick than the fat previously mentioned. It covers much
+of the intestines and the lowest part of the stomach and
+assists the coction of aliment.</p>
+<p>The intestines take origin from the stomach; of them, that
+which is called rectum and <i>longanon</i><a class="fn" id="fr_7" href="#fn_7">[7]</a> is the lowest of all the
+intestines and contains the dry burden of the bowel, and
+its head extends outward between the nates so that it may
+dispose of its burden. The colon is continuous with it and
+in its ascent goes around the left kidney, and at the sides of
+the stomach it falls away to the right.<a class="fn" id="fr_8" href="#fn_8">[8]</a> What the Greeks
+call <span class="small">TYPHLON</span> and <span class="small">MONOPHTHALMON</span>, the Romans
+the blind intestine and one-eyed,<a class="fn" id="fr_9" href="#fn_9">[9]</a> is attached to the colon,
+<span class="pb" id="Page_57">57</span>
+of which it is the only passage; for the other end is closed so
+that it may assist coction more suitably in the manner of the
+stomach. Hence the name for the thing. And such is the
+number of the thicker intestines.</p>
+<p>The caecum is continuous with the ileon,<a class="fn" id="fr_10" href="#fn_10">[10]</a> an intestine
+twisted into numerous sinuses; from its shape the Greeks
+gave it the name <span class="small">PARA TOU EILEISTHAI</span>, that is, from
+its involvement; and its disease is called <i>iliacus</i>. The jejunum
+follows it. Dissectors of bodies gave this name jejunum to
+the latter intestine because of the fact that it is always found
+empty and contains nothing. For the liver first snatches
+away whatever the jejunum might contain. Above all these
+intestines arises the duodenum which is continuous below
+with the jejunum and above with the pylorus. It is called
+<span class="small">D&#332;DEKA DAKTYLOM</span> by the Greeks from the measure
+of twelve fingers. These three [intestines] by reason of their
+substance are called the slender intestines.</p>
+<p>The stomach is located under the diaphragm, of which
+the upper mouth ends in the oesophagus, properly called
+<i>stomachus</i>; the lower opening through which aliment is sent
+into the intestines is called <span class="small">PYL&#332;ROS</span>.</p>
+<p>The spleen is an organ of rare substance and lies at the
+left side of the stomach; the liver being in the right hypochondrium.
+The latter is rounded and to some degree
+lunate, the former longish and somewhat quadrate. The
+gibbous part<a class="fn" id="fr_11" href="#fn_11">[11]</a> of each of these extends toward the lower
+ribs, because there is a concavity in each of them which is
+very close to the stomach. The liver gives rise to the blood.<a class="fn" id="fr_12" href="#fn_12">[12]</a>
+The spleen purges it of black bile. The spleen increases
+with loss to the rest of the body. The size of the liver is
+useful to the whole bodily structure, because it provides
+<span class="pb" id="Page_58">58</span>
+copious blood and natural spirit. The liver has lobes which
+the Greeks call <span class="small">LOBOUS</span>, sometimes three, sometimes
+more,<a class="fn" id="fr_13" href="#fn_13">[13]</a> and in its hollow extends the gall bladder by which
+the blood is freed of bile and issues forth pure. It is especially
+by exhalation and transpiration of this bladder that the
+duodenum and jejunum are sometimes stained;<a class="fn" id="fr_14" href="#fn_14">[14]</a> sometimes
+they are irritated if there is a very large transpiration of particularly
+corrosive bile.</p>
+<p>From the hollow of the liver<a class="fn" id="fr_15" href="#fn_15">[15]</a> arises the portal vein which
+is formed from the concurrence of the many slender veins
+of the liver. On the other hand, it divides again into innumerable
+parts and gives off an immense multitude of
+veins which afterward are inserted here and there into
+almost all the intestines and to the little adipose membranes
+mixed together, so that they provide nutritional substance
+for the liver in the generation of blood. For chyle and food
+are sent down from the stomach directly to the intestines;
+the pylorus yields an exit as soon as the stomach has received
+as much as suffices for its uses and has accomplished
+its coction. Unless it be transmuted into the nature of blood
+[this food] contributes very little toward the nourishment of
+the rest of the body. Therefore these numerous venules serve
+to draw out from the intestines the best juice of the nutriment
+as yet not sufficiently concocted, and deliver it to the
+hollow of the liver where the blood is made. Doubtless
+those venules can be called meseraics, or by the Greek word
+mesenterics. The Latins call them milk veins.<a class="fn" id="fr_16" href="#fn_16">[16]</a> For their
+protection, lest in their numerous ramifications some of
+them be torn apart or rent by a more vigorous motion of the
+<span class="pb" id="Page_59">59</span>
+body, the <span class="small">PANKREAS</span>, that is, glandular flesh which is
+sometimes called <span class="small">KALLIKREAS</span> by the Greeks, attaches
+to the duodenum so that the venules may individually be
+more firmly supported.</p>
+<p>The blood passes from the hollow of the liver, in which it
+was formed a little earlier, to the gibbosity<a class="fn" id="fr_17" href="#fn_17">[17]</a> of the liver;
+however, it is not the same kind as was made in the hollow
+but more pure and simple, since both biles have been
+strained from it and transmitted to their receptacles so that
+the blood may be more unsullied for nourishing the body
+wholesomely and for producing spirits. From the gibbosity
+the blood is extended throughout the whole body through
+the vena cava&mdash;called <span class="small">KOIL&#274;</span> by the Greeks&mdash;and by the
+many branches of that vein. This vein surpasses all the rest
+of the veins of the body in size and arises from the gibbosity
+of the liver. Descending from this through the middle of
+the spine, one [branch] on each side seeks the kidneys, each
+branch extending a palm&rsquo;s length.</p>
+<p>These branches of the vena cava are the emulgent veins.<a class="fn" id="fr_18" href="#fn_18">[18]</a>
+In the body of that one whom we dissected very recently the
+left branch had a higher place of origin.<a class="fn" id="fr_19" href="#fn_19">[19]</a> Very often, however,
+the opposite occurs, so that the right emulgent vein is
+carried higher in the body. Nature employs these emulgent
+veins for carrying down the watery part and bile of the
+blood from the liver to the kidneys. A like number of little
+branches of arteries in the same site, from the great aorta
+artery going under the vena cava, run an equal length into
+the kidneys under the emulgent veins, unburdening the heart
+<span class="pb" id="Page_60">60</span>
+of bile and watery blood; these have the name of emulgent
+arteries.</p>
+<p>A vein and artery descend from the left emulgents into
+the testis of the left side. They are the seminal passages
+swollen with blood and spirit; the seminal matter contained
+in them procreates females, because their humour is watery
+and requires coction. Seminal passages, likewise an artery
+and vein, are extended downward from the right [emulgents]
+into the right testis; but having arisen from the
+trunks of the vena cava and aorta artery, therefore the juice
+in them is less watery, and properly concocted is more
+suited for the generation of males. In these passages blood
+is concocted, and afterward transferred to the glandular flesh
+of the testes it acquires the form of semen.<a class="fn" id="fr_20" href="#fn_20">[20]</a></p>
+<p>The kidneys are solid and hard organs, not sentient, and
+the attractive force in them is very powerful. They purge the
+blood of its watery part and bile, but they retain [some of]
+the blood so that they may be nourished by it and expel the
+rest of the humour. For the <span class="small">OUR&#274;T&#274;RES</span> are attached to
+them,<a class="fn" id="fr_21" href="#fn_21">[21]</a> that is, the urinary passages, whitish, reed-like and
+tensile which it may be said extend to the bladder and are
+similar to its substance.</p>
+<p>The diaphragm is a membranous substance, running
+between the vital and natural members. It is called
+<span class="small">DIAPHRAGMA</span> by the Greeks. It strengthens the expulsive
+force in the intestines, it is assigned to the members selected
+for spirit, and it curbs the smoky vapours lest they blacken
+the vigorous spirits of the heart and brain. Above, there is
+affixed to it a sinewy covering<a class="fn" id="fr_22" href="#fn_22">[22]</a> which clothes the thorax
+<span class="pb" id="Page_61">61</span>
+inwardly and binds the pectoral ribs to the interstitial
+spaces, which covering the Greeks in good part name
+<span class="small">PLEURA</span>, but sometimes it is called <span class="small">HYPOZ&#332;MA</span><a class="fn" id="fr_23" href="#fn_23">[23]</a> by
+them. By its inflammation pleurisy occurs, the name taken
+from the covering.</p>
+<p>From the pleura near the spine arises a membrane separating
+the lungs and lower thorax into equal parts through
+the middle. It is commonly called the mediastinum, and is
+so well adapted to the lungs that a defect of one lung is not
+easily communicated to the other.<a class="fn" id="fr_24" href="#fn_24">[24]</a> Certainly the lungs inhabit
+the middle palace of the chest, invigorate the spirits
+of the heart and brain, temper the heat and avert the danger
+of suffocation, and have lobes like the liver. They hold the
+heart constantly in a kind of embrace in the manner of very
+caressing nurses and sing a harmony of qualities by which
+they soothe the individual parts of the body and make them
+vigorous. From that part of the mediastinum which holds
+the middle of the lungs, a thick and hard membrane
+appears which completely covers the heart,<a class="fn" id="fr_25" href="#fn_25">[25]</a> called in Greek
+<span class="small">PERIKARDION</span>. This protects the heart lest it be afflicted
+by accidental things; and lest it lack the moistening fomentation
+by which its heat is moderated. It unites the forces of
+the heart and prevents the exhaled spirits from being dispersed
+by vehement motion. Here the heart establishes itself,
+prince of members<a class="fn" id="fr_26" href="#fn_26">[26]</a> and an organ sharpened into [the
+shape of] a top; hollow within; continuously palpitating
+by its three ventricles,<a class="fn" id="fr_27" href="#fn_27">[27]</a> with an auricle on each side in
+<span class="pb" id="Page_62">62</span>
+which life remains the longest.<a class="fn" id="fr_28" href="#fn_28">[28]</a> The seat of the spirit and
+a small amount of blood is in the left ventricle of the heart,
+from which the pulmonary vein advances and enters the
+lungs to receive better-prepared air from them;<a class="fn" id="fr_29" href="#fn_29">[29]</a> this it introduces
+into the ventricles of the heart lest they become
+unduly heated. The right ventricle contains more and very
+hot blood. The vena cava rises into this<a class="fn" id="fr_30" href="#fn_30">[30]</a> through the middle
+of the spine and pours in the tinder of the vital spirit from
+the liver. From this the pulmonary artery belches much
+blood into the lungs. In the ventricle between the right
+and left there is tempered blood of slight quantity. From
+this ventricle the large artery called the aorta arises, the
+vehicle of the vital spirits; it is constantly agitated up and
+down by the contrary motions of dilatation and constriction,
+and finally it is divided into myriads of branches so that it
+revivifies the living parts in the whole body by a gentle
+flatus. This is the end of the account of the vital members.</p>
+<p>The membrane covering the bony roundness of the head
+outwardly is called <span class="small">PERIKRANION</span> by the Greeks, and it
+is hard, thick and firm, and conforms in substance to the
+exterior covering of the brain which is commonly called
+the dura mater. The covering of the dura mater hangs
+affixed to the pericranium, so it seemed to nature, lest in
+contact it have an effect on the brain; under this covering
+<span class="pb" id="Page_63">63</span>
+a thin and soft membrane, which is called the pia mater,
+sprinkled with numerous veins, envelops and nourishes
+the brain. It is continuous to the dura mater and the substance
+of the brain, and it penetrates the ventricles of the
+brain. Hence the brain displays itself very clearly to the eyes,
+both its ventricles and the cerebellum placed at the rear of
+the head from which the medulla descends into the vertebrae
+of the spine. Here the reticular plexus (commonly
+called the <i>rete mirabile</i>), woven together from numerous
+slender threads of veins and arteries at the summit of the
+cerebellum, displays its <i>phantasia</i>; in it the vital spirit carried
+upward from the heart through the arteries, having been
+fully concocted and rarefied, becomes animal spirit, the
+cause of sensation and motion in the whole body. For
+the brain is the source of the nerves, but the nerves are the
+vessels which distribute animal spirit;<a class="fn" id="fr_31" href="#fn_31">[31]</a> from the medulla of
+the spine (it is called <i>nucha</i> by the Barbarians) they are distributed
+to all parts of the body. Furthermore, there extend
+from the brain seven pairs of nerves.<a class="fn" id="fr_32" href="#fn_32">[32]</a> Two nerves look forward
+to the nares,<a class="fn" id="fr_33" href="#fn_33">[33]</a> the olfactory organs. Two are carried to
+<span class="pb" id="Page_64">64</span>
+the eyes,<a class="fn" id="fr_34" href="#fn_34">[34]</a> intersecting in their course, from whence comes
+the faculty of vision. Another two [carry] motion to the
+eyes,<a class="fn" id="fr_35" href="#fn_35">[35]</a> another two give motion and taste to the tongue.<a class="fn" id="fr_36" href="#fn_36">[36]</a>
+From two the stomach acquires sensation<a class="fn" id="fr_37" href="#fn_37">[37]</a> so that appetite
+may not be lacking to it, and from as many slender nerves the
+palate distinguishes flavours.<a class="fn" id="fr_38" href="#fn_38">[38]</a> Finally, from a single origin
+one nerve is extended on each side, provided for the right
+and for the left ear lest they be struck by deafness.<a class="fn" id="fr_39" href="#fn_39">[39]</a> These
+things which have been said by me briefly regarding the
+animal members, within the proposed limits, end this introduction
+to anatomy. Other matters which pertain to this
+subject I shall discuss in another work where we shall adapt
+the discourse to all aspects of anatomy.</p>

+<div class="fnblock"><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_1" href="#fr_1">[1]</a>The term <i>mirach</i> means the anterior abdominal wall, but here Edwardes
+refers to the abdominal wall as venter. Lower venter proper means the abdomen
+or abdominal cavity together with the pelvis.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_2" href="#fr_2">[2]</a>There is confusion here for, of course, the skin of the body is most sensitive.
+The subcutaneous tissues, on the other hand, are relatively insensitive.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_3" href="#fr_3">[3]</a>He refers to the aponeurosis of the external oblique muscle. It joins with its

+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_7" href="#fr_7">[7]</a><i>Longanon</i> is the medieval Latin term for rectum. In the text which follows it
+will be noted that Edwardes describes the intestines from below upwards.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_8" href="#fr_8">[8]</a>The hepatic flexure of the colon.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_9" href="#fr_9">[9]</a>The caecum was termed the <i>monoculus</i> by medieval anatomists. There is no
+mention of the appendix; this was first described in 1523 by Berengario da
+Carpi.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_10" href="#fr_10">[10]</a>The ileum.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_11" href="#fr_11">[11]</a>The curved surface.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_12" href="#fr_12">[12]</a>Galen maintained that the major veins had their origin in the liver.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_13" href="#fr_13">[13]</a>Multiple lobes to the liver was another teaching of Galen derived from
+comparative anatomy.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_14" href="#fr_14">[14]</a>Post-mortem staining of the viscera with bile is very common.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_15" href="#fr_15">[15]</a>The porta hepatis.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_16" href="#fr_16">[16]</a>This is a good account of the function of the lymphatic vessels.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_17" href="#fr_17">[17]</a>The gibbosity of the liver is its curved, upper surface.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_18" href="#fr_18">[18]</a>The emulgent veins are the renal veins.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_19" href="#fr_19">[19]</a>This is normal in man but in some animals the right renal vessels arise
+higher than the left. It will be noted that he speaks from his own experience. It is
+a pity that he qualifies this statement in the next sentence with a reference to the
+then current teaching, derived from Galen.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_20" href="#fr_20">[20]</a>The fallacious idea of the testis filtering off the sperm from the blood brought
+down to it by the testicular artery lasted a long time. Note too the old fallacy of
+the left testis producing a female foetus and the right producing a male.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_21" href="#fr_21">[21]</a>The ureters.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_22" href="#fr_22">[22]</a>The pleura.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_23" href="#fr_23">[23]</a>Either Edwardes or the printer was at fault in the form of the Greek script,
+while the word has more the meaning of diaphragm than of pleura.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_24" href="#fr_24">[24]</a>Edwardes is obviously aware of the individuality of each pleural sac.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_25" href="#fr_25">[25]</a>The pericardium.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_26" href="#fr_26">[26]</a>Note that the heart is the most important organ of the body.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_27" href="#fr_27">[27]</a>The three-ventricled heart was a myth which remained entrenched in
+anatomy until Niccol&ograve; Massa (1536) and Vesalius. Leonardo da Vinci showed
+that there were only two ventricles but his drawings were not seen by his contemporaries.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_28" href="#fr_28">[28]</a>Edwardes is to a degree correct when he says that life remains longest in the
+auricles. Slow contraction of the auricles can be seen for a short time after contraction
+of the ventricles has ceased. This passage could suggest that he practised
+vivisection.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_29" href="#fr_29">[29]</a>Note the persistence of the old idea that the left ventricle contains air.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_30" href="#fr_30">[30]</a>The medieval anatomists regarded the right and left atria as part of the
+corresponding ventricle, hence they stated that the venae cavae opened into the
+right ventricle. Edwardes&rsquo;s acceptance of the old theory is interesting for just
+above this in the text he mentions the auricles as separate chambers.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_31" href="#fr_31">[31]</a>Galen taught that the nerves were hollow and carried the animal spirit from
+the brain to the periphery. The vital spirit (air) was carried by the arteries to the
+brain where, in the <i>rete mirabile</i> it was transformed into the animal spirit.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_32" href="#fr_32">[32]</a>The ancient idea that there were seven pairs of nerves did not disappear
+from anatomical teaching until Thomas Willis in 1664 increased the number to
+nine and Samuel Thomas Soemmerring in 1778 established the modern order
+of numbering the nerves into twelve pairs. In the account which follows
+Edwardes does not follow the ancient description of the cranial nerves. According
+to Galen, and indeed Vesalius, the olfactory nerves were not regarded as
+separate entities; moreover the glossopharyngeal, vagus, and accessory nerves
+were part of a single nerve. Edwardes does not describe the trigeminal or facial
+nerves nor the trochlear or abducent. The trochlear nerve had been described by
+Alessandro Achillini in 1520. The abducent nerve was to be described later by
+Eustachius.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_33" href="#fr_33">[33]</a>Olfactory nerves. That Edwardes regarded them as functional units is
+worthy of note.
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_34" href="#fr_34">[34]</a>Optic nerves (the ancient first pair).
+</div><div class="fndef"><a class="fn" id="fn_35" href="#fr_35">[35]</a>Oculomotor nerves (the ancient second pair).

+electronic works, harmless from all liability, costs and expenses,
+including legal fees, that arise directly or indirectly from any of
+the following which you do or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this
+or any Project Gutenberg-tm work, (b) alteration, modification, or
+additions or deletions to any Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any
+Defect you cause.
+
+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
+computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
+exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
+from people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
+generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
+Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
+www.gutenberg.org Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation

+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal

+
+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
+DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
+state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
+donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
+
+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
+freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
+distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
+volunteer support.
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
+the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
+necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
+edition.
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search
+facility: www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
