title: Surgical teaching at the Jardin des Plantes during the seventeenth century.
abstract: Lectures and demonstrations on surgery were given at the Jardin des Plantes in Paris from the time it was founded in 1626, notably by Dionis in 1672-1680 and by Du Verney in 1680-1707. The latter's claims for repayment of his expenses in 1687-1690 provide a detailed picture of how the teaching was organized.
