De vocis auditusque organis historia anatomica

Dublin Core

Description

In this crowning work by Fabricius's rival servant, Casserio (Casseri, Giulio Cesare, approximately 1552-1616), the title page symbolically in ornate artwork portrays more powerful than words the contents of the script. Unlike Fabricius, Casserio included an excellent illustration of the tracheotomy in this work, with the incision, instruments used, and a cannula.
