Physiognomy - Johann Caspar Lavater - Bog

Physiognomy: Or The Corresponding Analogy Between The Conformation Of The Features And The Ruling Passions Of The Mind is a book written by Johann Caspar Lavater and originally published in 1866. The book explores the idea that a person's physical appearance can reveal their character, personality, and emotions. Lavater believed that the shape and structure of a person's face, eyes, nose, mouth, and other features could provide insights into their inner thoughts and feelings, as well as their strengths and weaknesses. The book contains detailed descriptions and illustrations of various facial features and their corresponding meanings, as well as examples of famous historical figures and their physiognomy. Lavater also explores the relationship between physiognomy and other fields, such as psychology, art, and literature. While the concept of physiognomy has been largely discredited in modern times, this book provides a fascinating look into the history of this field and the beliefs that once surrounded it. It remains a valuable resource for those interested in the history of psychology, as well as those interested in the ways in which our physical appearance can influence our perceptions of ourselves and others.Being A Complete Epitome Of The Original Work Of J.
