Sumario: | The development of biomedical sciences has been strengthened with the technology in other fields ; such was the case with the invention of photography, the latter represented a breakthrough in scientific objectivity required by the registration of the human anatomy. The use of photography in the nineteenth century teratology, medical specialty for the study of human strains, represented a major technical advance in the scientific community because the evidence was the image of testing teratology, which helped in the study, classification and exclusion of abnormal traces from its monstrous appearance and anatomy. But the desire for objectivity of doctors, the study of the monster was the ambivalence of fear and fantasy of their origin. The counting of individuals who do not comply with the "natural" order is undoubtedly a performance of symbolic violence and act. |
