Ivan Pavlov has been cited without context in the chapter “good behaviour” of the encyclopeadia “Die Frau”, about basic etiquette for dining that should assure the salubriousness of a meal. Nevertheless, this scientific research on the physiology of digestion was originally gathered through the study of salivating dogs.
The cited text from the encyclopedia is brought into parallel with replica images and objects from experiments on “Pavlov’s dog”.
