The Pathological Bodies Project Blog

Welcome to the Pathological Bodies Project Blog

The Pathological Bodies Project is a blog which derived initially from my doctorate project entitled ‘Pathological Bodies: Specimen Preservation, Death and Display in Britain, 18th -19th Centuries‘ (funded by NECAH/ Heritage Consortium). The project aims to explore topics related to the display, obtainment and attitudes towards the use of 18th – 19th century anatomical specimens in Britain. I write about an array of topics. If you are interested in anything death related, including; archaeology, embalming, history of medicine and disease, then have a read of my blog posts or get in touch on Twitter (@pathbodies) or Instagram (pathologicalbodiesproject).
