[ED: Hardcover], [PU: STATE UNIV OF NY PR], In this compelling interdisciplinary study, Elizabeth Klaver considers how autopsies are "performed in a variety of contexts, from the "real" thing in hospitals and county morgues to various depictions in paintings, novels, prays, films, and television shows, has lately become one of the most spectacular bodies offered up to the public on film, television, and the Internet. Setting her discussion within the history of the modern autopsy, and including the narrative of her own attendance at a medical autopsy. Klaver makes the autopsy readable in a number of diverse venues, from Rembrandt's "The Anatomy Lecture and Vesalius's Fabrica to The Silence of the Lambs, The X-Files, and CSI. Moving form the actual autopsy itself to its broader symbolic ramifications, Klaver addresses questions as disparate as the social constructedness of the body, the perception and treatment of death under late capitalism, and the ubiquity of paranoia in contemporary culture.
