Abstract

In the early 19th century, body snatching was rife because the only corpses available for medical study were those of hanged murderers. With the Anatomy Act of 1832 the bodies of those who died destitute in workhouses were appropriated for dissection. This text explores this history. In the early nineteenth century, body snatching was rife because the only corpses available for medical study were those of hanged murderers. With the Anatomy Act of 1832, however, the bodies of those who died destitute in workhouses were appropriated for dissection. At a time when such a procedure was regarded with fear and revulsion, the Anatomy Act effectively rendered dissection a punishment for poverty. Providing both historical and contemporary insights, "Death, Dissection, and the Destitute" opens rich new prospects in history and history of science. The new afterword draws important parallels between social and medical history and contemporary concerns regarding organs for transplant and human tissue for research.

Abstract

Tombstones provide the largest single category of epigraphical evidence from the ancient world. However, epigraphy - the study of inscriptions - remains, for many students of history and archaeology, an abstruse subject. By marrying epigraphy and death, the contributors to this collection hope to encourage a wider audience to consider the importance of inscribed tombstones.

Abstract

Hacia finales del siglo XVIII, un selecto grupo de acaudalados se interesó por conseguir algún título de nobleza con el fin de aumentar su honor y prestigio, valores de una alta estima en aquélla época. De esta forma, la sociedad novohispana quedó coronada con condes y marqueses que impusieron un código de comportamiento que fue imitado y reproducido por el resto de los grupos sociales. Esta es una historia que se basa, principalmente, en las últimas voluntades de estos hombres y mujeres: los testamentos. Su rigor científico llamará la atención entre los lectores por su novedad, por la ambición de su planteamiento, por su acertado enfoque crítico, por su estilo narrativo y por sus valiosos aportes a la historia social y de las mentalidades en México. El interés de esta historia reside principalmente en que tiende un puente entre la formación de la nobleza y el ritual que rodeaba a la muerte.
