"Ex Museolo Nostro Machaonico": Collecting, Publishing, and Visualization in Fabricius Hildanus

ABSTRACT:This essay seeks to use the learned surgeon Wilhelm Fabry von Hilden (1560–1634), better known by the Latinized name of Fabricius Hildanus, to establish links among areas that have so far generally been seen by historians as separate. They include the publication of Observationes chirurgicae, the establishment of a surgical museum, and the collection and publication of several images documenting his activities. Fabricius was among the first to embark on these three endeavors. The essay provides an especially rich account of his museum, including its holdings and in some cases the preservation methods he employed.
