Hardback or Cased Book. Zustand: New. Wound Man: The Many Lives of a Surgical Image. Book.

Zustand: New.

Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. The Wound Man - a medical diagram depicting a figure fantastically pierced by weapons and ravaged by injuries and diseases - was reproduced widely across the medieval and early modern globe. In this panoramic book, Jack Hartnell charts the emergence and endurance of this striking image, used as a visual guide to the treatment of many ailments. Taking readers on a remarkable journey from medieval Europe to eighteenth-century Japan, Hartnell explains the historic popularity of this gruesome image and why the Wound Man continues to intrigue us today.Drawing on a wealth of original research, Hartnell traces the many lives of the Wound Man, from its origins in late medieval Bohemia to its vivid reincarnations in hundreds of manuscripts and printed books over more than three hundred years. Transporting readers beyond the specifics of bodily injury, Hartnell demonstrates how the Wound Man's body was at once an encyclopedic repository of surgical knowledge, a fantastic literary and religious muse, a catalyst for shifting media landscapes, and a cross-cultural artistic feat that reached diverse audiences around the world. The Wound Man, we discover, held profound importance not only for healers and patients but also for scribes, students, nuns, monks, printmakers, and poets.Marvellously illustrated, Wound Man sheds light on the entwined histories of art and medicine, showing how premodern medical diagrams represent a unique site of contact between sickness, cure, painting, and print.'This book offers a stunning three-hundred-year visual chronicle of surgical technique, procedure, instrumentation, and much else. Jack Hartnell brilliantly employs the remarkably persistent image of the Wound Man to explore learned and vernacular medicine, the fascinating landscape of early print, and increasingly aesthetic illustration practices in crowded book markets as the Wound Man is reproduced and recreated through seventeenth-century Europe and far beyond.' - Pamela H. Smith, author of From Lived Experience to the Written Word: Reconstructing Practical Knowledge in the Early Modern World'A brilliantly conceived and meticulously executed account of the varied contexts in which Wound Man appeared as a carrier of knowledge and mediator of healing practices. Jack Hartnell seamlessly stitches together medical history, medieval natural philosophy, the history of the book, and the history of the scientific image. Wound Man, the stuff of legends, has finally received a true hero's welcome.' - Mitchell Merback, author of Perfection's Therapy: An Essay on Albrecht Drer's "Melencolia I" A spectacularly illustrated history of an enigmatic surgical diagram.
