As a follow-up to last week's episode with Luis Salas on the ancient history of medicine and anatomy, we're reaching into the archives to share the story of story of one museum, La Specola, and its infamous 18th century exhibit of gruesome wax anatomical models. Our guide is Rebecca Messbarger, a professor of Italian and Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies and director of the Medical Humanities minor at Washington University in St. Louis. In this episode from 2014, Messbarger explains how La Specola and its wax inhabitants helped set the course for a new Enlightenment era, and how one figure, the Venus, became central to this new regime of the human body.

Today, we're going back to 18th century Florence, Italy to tell the story of one museum, La Specola, and its infamous exhibit of gruesome wax anatomical models. At the time of its founding in 1771, the new Archduke Peter Leopold found himself confronting the deep-rooted legacy of his famous predecessors--the Medici. La Specola quickly became the crux of a larger movement within Tuscany, and the museum and its wax inhabitants helped set the course for a new Enlightenment era. Rebecca Messbarger, a professor of Italian and Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at Washington University in St. Louis, is our guide, and she explains how one figure, the Venus, became the central to this new regime of the human body.

Professor Simon Schaffer (University of Cambridge) Automata and Dr Anna Maerker (Kings College London) Model Bodies and Model Experts Abstracts Prof Simon Schaffer: Eighteenth century automata served a very wide range of uses, as things to display or satirise, admire or unmask. Such seemingly self-moving things functioned in a culture fascinated by the workings of the theatre and of the market, especially in juxtaposition of automata with other mobile things of the period, such as spring clocks and water pumps. And what happens when these things now appear on film? Dr Anna Maerker: The Royal Museum of Physics and Natural History 'La Specola' in late-eighteenth-century Florence was famous for its life-sized wax models of the human body, part of a public display of nature that was designed to further public happiness through education and enlightenment. In this talk, I will focus on practices of model making and model use at La Specola to ask how things mediate human relationships and shape social groups. Based on material from my book Model Experts: Wax Anatomies and Enlightenment in Florence and Vienna, 1775–1815, the talk will investigate how model makers articulated their identity through model production, and how model display shaped the relationship between experts and the public.
