Giovanni Girolamo Sbaraglia
Giovanni Girolamo Sbaraglia (28 October 1641 - June 1710) was an Italian physician and writer. He was a determined, perhaps obsessed, critic of the famous anatomist Marcello Malpighi. Biography He was born in Bologna, and obtained a doctorate in philosophy and medicine at the University of Bologna. He gained academic positions, teaching both logic and practical medicine, and later theoretic medicine, at the university. He taught at the latter position for nearly four decades. He became a much revered clinical physician in Bologna, and was the main doctor for the Jesuit and Dominican orders in Bologna. While he lived mainly in Bologna, his family had an estate in Crevalcore that bordered with the Malpighi property in that town.

Marcello Malpighi
Marcello Malpighi (10 March 1628 – 30 November 1694) was an Italian biologist and physician, who is referred to as the "Founder of microscopical anatomy, histology & Father of physiology and embryology". Malpighi's name is borne by several physiological features related to the biological excretory system, such as the Malpighian corpuscles and Malpighian pyramids of the kidneys and the Malpighian tubule system of insects. The splenic lymphoid nodules are often called the "Malpighian bodies of the spleen" or Malpighian corpuscles. The botanical family Malpighiaceae is also named after him. He was the first person to see capillaries in animals, and he discovered the link between arteries and veins that had eluded William Harvey. Malpighi was one of the earliest people to observe red blood cells under a microscope, after Jan Swammerdam. His treatise ''De polypo cordis'' (1666) was important for understanding blood composition, as well as how blood clots. In it, Malpighi describ ...

The building was begun at the end of February 1562, built very quickly, it was inaugurated on October 21, 1563. The goal of this project was to create a single place where the Scho ...

17th-century Italian Physicians
The 17th century lasted from January 1, 1601 ( MDCI), to December 31, 1700 ( MDCC). It falls into the early modern period of Europe and in that continent (whose impact on the world was increasing) was characterized by the Baroque cultural movement, the latter part of the Spanish Golden Age, the Dutch Golden Age, the French ''Grand Siècle'' dominated by Louis XIV, the Scientific Revolution, the world's first public company and megacorporation known as the Dutch East India Company, and according to some historians, the General Crisis. From the mid-17th century, European politics were increasingly dominated by the Kingdom of France of Louis XIV, where royal power was solidified domestically in the civil war of the Fronde. The semi-feudal territorial French nobility was weakened and subjugated to the power of an absolute monarchy through the reinvention of the Palace of Versailles from a hunting lodge to a gilded prison, in which a greatly expanded royal court could be more easily k ...
