MALPIGHI. 1261
professorship he filled for fifty years, and together with the celebrated
Boerhaave and Ruysch, he made the medical faculty of the university
of Leyden the most distinguished in all Europe." His merit especially
lies in the finish of the anatomical drawings by which his anatomical
works were illustrated. Almost all these illustrations were drawn
and engraved by the great artist Wandelaer.
NOTE 285.
LANCISI.
Extracts from the works of Lancisi on the ganglia are contained
in Codex 57 (Document 310, p. 859). He is also abundantly quoted
in all the anatomical treatises of Swedenborg. Joannes Maria Lancisi
was born in Rome in 1654, and died in 1721. Dr. Wilkinson says
concerning him, "He was a man of philosophical tendencies, and the
first portion of his work on the motion of the heart is admirable in
this respect." His Opera Omnia were printed at Geneva in 1718
and 1725, in Venice in 1739 , and in Rome in 1745.
NOTE 286.
CASSEBOHM.
John Frederic Cassebohm, while professor in Halle, published in
Frankfort on the Oder a "Dissertation on the internal ear" (Diss.
de aure interna), 1730 ; and in Halle during 1734 and 1735 he
published six treatises on the "Human Ear" (De aure humana trac
tatus sex). From these works Swedenborg made extensive excerpts
in Codex 58 (Document 310, p. 860). Cassebohm went from Halle
to Frankfort on the Oder, and thence to Berlin, where he died
comparatively young.
NOTE 287.
MALPIGHI.
Abundant justice is done by Swedenborg to this celebrated Italian
anatomist both in his Economia Regni Animalis and in his Regnum
Animale. He is also quoted in Codex 74 (Document 310, p. 867).
Marcellus Malpighi was born in 1628, and died in Rome in 1694.
The whole of his works were printed in Venice in 1743 by Govinelli ;
