THEATRE OF ANATOMY, 



Blenbeim-street, Great Marlborougb-street. 



The Summer Course of Lectures on Anatomy, Physiology, and 

 Surgery, will commence on Saturday, the 8th of June, at Two 

 ©'Clock in the Afternoon, and wilJ be continued on Monday the 

 loth, and every subsequent Morning at Seven, Sundays excepted, 



By Mr. BROOKES. 



IN these Lectures the Structure of the Human Body will be de- 

 monstrated on recent Subjects, and further illustrated by Pre- 

 parations, and the Functions of the different Organs will be ex* 

 plained. 



The Surgical Operations are performed, and every Part of Sur- 

 gery so elucidated, as may best tend to complete the Operating 

 Surgeon. 



The Art of Injecting, and of making Anatomical Preparations, 

 will be taught practically. 



Gentlemen zealous in the pursuit of Zoology will meet with un- 

 common opportunities of prosecuting their researches in Compara- 

 tl.e Anatomy. 



Surgeons in the Army and Navy may be assisted in renewing 

 iheir Anatomical Knowledge, and every possible attention will be 

 paid to their Accommodation as well as Instruction, 



Anatomical Conversaziones will be held Weekly, when the dif- 

 ferent Subjects treated of will be discussed familiarly, and the Stu- 

 dents' views forwarded.. To these none but Pupils can be ad- 

 mitted. 



Spacious Apartments, thoroughly ventilated, and replete with 

 every Convenience, will be open at five o'Clock in ihe Morning, 

 for the purposes of Dissecting and Injecting, where Mr. Brookes 

 attends to direct the Students, and demonstrate the various Parts 

 as they appear on Dissection. 



An extensive Museum, containing Preparations illustrative of 

 every Part of the Human Body, and its Diseases, is attached to 

 the Theatre, to which Students will have occasional admittance. 

 Gentlemen inclined to support this Medical School by contributing 

 preternatural or morbid Parts, Subjects in Natural History, &c, 

 (individually of little value to the possessors,) may have the plea- 

 sure of seeing them preserved, arranged, and registered with the 

 names of the Donors. 



The inconveniences usually attending Anatomical Investiga- 

 tions, are counteracted by an Antiseptic Process, the result of 

 Experiments made by Mr. Brookes on Human Subjects, at Paris, 

 in the year 1782; the account of which was delivered to the Royal 

 Society, and read on the 17th of June 1784. This method has 

 since been so far i.Tiproved, that the ilorid colour of the Muscles is 

 preserved, and even heightened. 



Pupils may be accommodated in the House. 



Gentlemen established in Practice, desirous of renewing their 

 Anatomical Knowledge, may be accommodated with an Apatt- 

 merU to Dissect in privately.
