University of Padua and Anatomical Dissection
According to J. M. Levine, this illustration in the Fabrica depicts the robbing of a body from a Jewish cemetery. Lazarus Di Frigeis
H. Friedenwald, “The Jewish Medical Student of Former Days, ” Menorah Journal 7: 1 (Feb. , 1921) In Padua, the students of medicine claimed the corpses of the Jews for anatomical purposes; and often they took them forcibly from the burial-place in spite of the fact that the Jews possessed the privilege that the bodies of their dead were not to be touched. For this privilege they paid large sums.
Safeguards from Grave Robbing Guarding of Cemetaries Cecil Roth, History of the Great Synagogue (London) A mere ground-keeper was found later on to be an insufficient safeguard. It was the age of the "resurrection men", who removed recently-interred corpses and sold them to the medical schools for dissection. At the Great Synagogue, a law was passed to the effect that all members of the congregation between the ages of eighteen and seventy were to be obliged to lend their services in rotation. Each night, therefore, three of them performed this cold and rather gruesome duty, from as early as four o'clock on winter evenings to seven in the morning. At intervals, they had to ring the bell of the watch-tower to show they were alert: in some grounds, they were supposed to walk about every hour and to call "All's well" if they found nothing amiss. Among the Synagogal records there are preserved rosters of the roll of service, "for the guarding of the House of Life". It was possible to obtain exemption only on the payment of a substantial fine, of which too the records are preserved. This system continued to obtain until well on in the nineteenth century. According to the Times of February 10, 1800, the Jew A. de Matto Mocatta left 200 Guineas to have his grave in the burial ground of the Spanish and Portuguese Jews watched for twelve months.
Dissection and the Jewish Medical Student Cecil Roth, Venice (Philadelphia, JPS, 1930), 286 -287 A standing grievance of the student body against the Jewish community lay in one especial fact. Their traditional respect for the bodies of the dead made the Jews unwilling to furnish their quota of corpses to the medical school for dissection. At the time of the opening of the anatomical theater, they had obtained exemption from the duty by a considerable annual payment. Nevertheless, from the sixteenth century onwards, the students began to resent their enjoyment of this privilege. Bodies were sometimes intercepted on their way to burial; and frequently the graves in the cemetery were violated. The Senate repeatedly issued orders forbidding this disgraceful conduct, but all to no avail. The Jews were compelled to construct a secret hiding place in the Ghetto in which, in cases of necessity, the bodies could be concealed until the funeral. In 1624, a cortege was stopped in the streets and the body dragged away; and only the indignation felt by the citizens at large prevented it from being taken for dissection. In 1680, when a young Jew was murdered, there was similar trouble with regard to the body, which actually had to be rescued from the dissecting table. As late as 1721, a confirmation of the ancient Jewish immunity was required. A more comical case of kidnapping took place on one occasion in the sixteenth century. It was a year of dearth; and only one perfect citron (etrog) could be obtained in the city for the celebration of the Feast of Tabernacles. This was shared by all of the communities. One day while if was being taken from the German to the Italian synagogue, for use in divine service, it was seized by a riotous band of students, who would not restore it before they were paid an immense ransom. 10

A Magnificent Decorated Seventeenth Century Celebratory Broadsheet with a Congratulatory Poem Authored by Rabbi Mordecai Ghirondi in 1836 Honoring Dr. Isaac Luzzatto [Venice, ca. 1670; Padua, 1836] We may therefore reasonably surmise that this superb seventeenth century broadsheet survived in its pristine blank central panel until Ghirondi, an assiduous collector of Hebraica and Judaica, acquired it and determined it worthy of commemorating the important milestone in the life of his highly esteemed brother-inlaw, Dr. Isaac Luzzatto.
