Picturing the book of nature: image, text, and argument in sixteenth-century human anatomy and medical botany

Kusukawa, Sachiko. - Personal Name;

In the sixteenth century, it became common for medical students across
Europe to learn about plants in the summer and to attend dissections in
the winter. Though today we may regard botany and anatomy as distinct
disciplines, in the past they both belonged to the study of medicine. As
other historians have already noted, medical botany and human anatomy
came to striking prominence in the sixteenth century as descriptive studies
emphasising firsthand experience.
