Inventor of a machine called “The Tormentatore,” capable of inflicting
“intense,” “cruel,” “most atrocious” agony.
“The _Gazzetta Italiana di Milano_ contains an essay of Prof. Mantegazza
on experiments carried on under his direction at the laboratory of
experimental pathology of the University of Pavia. It will suffice to
state that the experiments were intended to study the action of pain on
digestion and nutrition. They were, as the Professor himself confesses,
agonising to the animals subjected to them, and distressing to the
experimenters, and simply proved that loss of appetite, great weakness,
and a peculiar imbibition of moisture were the result of the pain
inflicted. It is added that no alteration of the spinal marrow could be
detected after the agony had been protracted for _one month_. Very meagre
results of unpardonable cruelty.”--_Lancet_, March 25th, 1871, p. 415.
