Abstract

[Ita:]In Italia la storia della formazione medica è stata profondamente influenzata dall'uso di cere anatomiche sin dal XVIII secolo, quando presso l'Archiginnasio di Bologna e la Specola di Firenze Specola furono aperte due delle più importanti scuole di ceroplastica. I preparati anatomici della Specola possono essere esaminati non solo da un punto di vista artistico ma anche secondo una prospettiva scientifica e didattica, mettendo così in rilievo il punto di vista di insegnanti e allievi

Anatomical preparations of Specola are examined from an artistic point of view – i.e. the figures of artists and modellers who operated in Florence. But also the scientific perspective – i.e. the history of medicine – and the didactic perspective, from the point of view of both teachers and pupils such as surgeons and especially of midwives and obstetricians, emerge in all their importance – as clearly manifested by the magnificent Suppellex obstetricia
