Journal des Scavans, 11. - A Amsterdam, Chez Pierre le Grand, M.DC.LXXXIV (1684), 404, 18 pp., 12 z.T. gefalt. Kupferstichtafeln, Halbledereinband d.Zt. First Edition! The first material model of the blood circulation was produced by the German Salomon Reisel (1625-1701). "Let's examine Reisel's Statua more closely, probably the most spectacular item in the list. As it appears from his 1693 essay in Miscellanea curiosa, unlike Jacques Vaucanson with his duck, Reisel wished to build the Statua but he did not actually do so; rather, he discussed the most appropriate materials for its construction, such as the skeleton of wood or iron, the blood vessels near the heart of elder- tree, and, as Luigi Belloni has emphasized, the pineal gland of conical glass or crystal held by a silk thread inside a spherical glass globe. Reisel's remarkable plates show the kidneys, bladder, sphincter, penis, and larynx. Reisel discussed digestion and the filtration of urine but his primary aim was to convince the skeptics of the truth of the circulation of the blood, which he illustrated with the detail of blood squirting out of openings in the foot and hand. It would be reductive to take Malpighi's examples as mere marvels or even instantiations of anatomical structures. It has not been sufficiently appreciated that Malpighi framed his examples as part of a general reflection on pathology as well as physiology, thus extending the notion of nature's uniformity from machines to organs and from healthy to diseased states. Malpighi's anatomical publications and medical consultations display his chymical and mechanical thinking in understanding many of the operations described by Reisel's machine and of the related diseases. In De polypo cordis, for example, he reported several experiments based on aspersing different chemical on blood poured in a vessel in order to ascertain their properties. Malpighi was especially concerned with the change of color and fluidity of blood, arguing that those chemicals making the blood more fluid would be potentially effective against affections decreasing the blood's fluidity, such as the plague. His experiments pointed to a therapy, though one none of use would be eager to test. Similarly, in a medical consultation of 29 March 1687 for a case of gout, he sought to explain what happens inside the body, the cause of the disease being an excess of acids in the chyle. Then he also stated: "All this can be seen in proportion also mechanically mixing spirit of vitriol, or another acid that is especially austere, with different fluids." In this passage Malpighi used the term "mechanically" rather broadly, in conjunction with a chymical operation. It is especially significant from our perspective that he reproduced in vitro processes occurring inside the body in order to investigate disease and to devise suitable therapies. This consultation echoes Malpighi's description of Reisel's Statua, thus providing strong evidence that he envisaged it as a material device and interpreted it - unlike Reisel himself - from a pathological and medical standpoint as well."
