| Povzetek: | The article sheds light on the invention of early modern precision instruments and
their application in medicine, by analysing a neglected work by one of the Italian
pupils of the physician Santorio Santori (1561–1636). This source provides vital infor-
mation on Santorio’s experimental sample, and on the practical use and dimensions
of instruments such as thermometers, hygrometers, pulsimeters and precision scales,
showing that they also had a normative purpose: regulating the environmental factors
affecting human health. The article first establishes the derivative nature of the source
from Santorio’s teachings, and then contextualises the invention of precision instru-
ments with regard to Santorio’s published and unpublished output. In the conclusions,
I argue that the new instruments were meant to address the shortcomings of the tradi-
tional diagnostic rationale and are best conceptualised as ‘intensity meters’ meant to
assess ‘the magnitude’ (magnitudo) of a patient’s illness in degrees. |
