 abstract = {The various writings of Leonardo Fioravanti (fig. 18), virtually all of which are dedicated to popular medicine, and certainly all of which stand at the antipodes of the sorts of highbrow humanist writings we looked at in the previous chapter, furnish an understanding of Renaissance culture in literary and rhetorical terms in ways that have not always been adequately explored by scholars attending to his life and work as a surgeon/physician. The historian William Eamon, for example, brilliantly disclosed how Fioravanti, as a radical empiric invested in discovering the “secrets of nature,” contributed in a significant way to the development},
