Chapter 4 Delivering Post-Mortem Harm: Cutting the Corpse Staging Post-Execu…
Those convicted of homicide were hanged on the public gallows before being dissected under the Murder Act in Georgian England. Yet, from 1752, whether criminals actually died on the hanging tree or in the dissection room remained a medical mystery in early modern society.
