A few days ago, I met with the very lovely and generous anatomist Dr. Chang-Seok Oh, referred to me by my friend Ross MacFarlane<\/a>. I had been interested in viewing medical or old natural history collections here in Seoul, and Dr. Oh had kindly offered to take me to see an anatomical collection of a Catholic university hospital where he had a contact. The collection had a number of interesting pieces, the most outstanding being a 17th Century mummy unearthed at an archeological excavation; there were also a number of forensic reconstructions. Images of the collection can be seen above.<\/p>

Dr. Oh then took me back to his office, where we gushed about our shared interest in post-Vesalius\/pre-Gray's Anatomy<\/span> anatomical history, and where he shared with me his beautiful original copy of the 18th century Ontleedkundige Tafelen<\/a>. <\/i>This book, Dr. Oh explained to me, <\/i>is of the greatest importance to Asian medicine, as it was the first Western medical book translated for Eastern consumption, published in Japan (with some additions from other texts) as Kaitai Shinsho<\/i><\/a> in 1774. The book then made the rounds in Asia, changing the face of Eastern medicine forever. We did a side by side comparison of the original book and a facsimile of the 18th century Japanese Kaitai Shinsho<\/i><\/a><\/i>; you can see those side by side comparisons above. I really liked the visual translation that occurs as the images move from the West to the East.<\/p>

Click on images to see much larger, more detailed versions. Its worth it! And thanks to Ross MacFarlane<\/a> and Deborah Leem for making this happen!<\/p>
