the perception of what we are as human animals. By adopting three of the most iconic analogies ever used in the history of medicine to represent the human body,
</span><i><span style="font-size:14pt">The Kiln, the Alembic, and the Clockwork</span></i><span style="font-size:14pt"> will explore the early modern imagery of the body, in connection to the methods of investigation and its overlapping with disciplines such
as alchemy and astronomy. Particular attention will be devoted to processes such as the combination and the concoction of humours (the
</span><i><span style="font-size:14pt">kiln</span></i><span style="font-size:14pt">), distillation and perspiration (the
</span><i><span style="font-size:14pt">alembic</span></i><span style="font-size:14pt">) and the mechanical action of innate heat (the
