I decided against reading Short History of the Shadow from back to back.

Been reading more Victor Stoichita.

I also decided against reading the other two works from back to back.

I took notes while reading The Pygmalion Effect (2008):

Artistic anthropology, simulacra grapes of Zeuxis, Pygmalion is not an imitation but a creation ex nihilo, the photosculpture in The Future Eve, Callistratus, Friedrich Nietzsche on Pygmalion, Hermione in The Winter's Tale, Thomas Willis's Cerebri anatome (1664) which argued that the seat of the soul is to be found in the brain.

Also Les troncs de la veine cave avec leurs branches disséquées dans un corps adulte, &c. d'après les Transactions Philosophiques [1]

See also Émile Zola on photography and John Bulwer's Chirogram from Chirologia.
