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 in 1866. The book explores the concept of physiognomy, which is the study of facial features and their relation to human character and personality. Lavater believed that a person's physical appearance could reveal their innermost thoughts and emotions. He argued that the shape of a person's face, the size of their nose, the curve of their lips, and other physical features could indicate their temperament, intelligence, and moral character. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a specific aspect of physiognomy. Lavater provides detailed descriptions of various facial features and their corresponding meanings, as well as examples from history and literature to support his claims. While physiognomy was a popular field of study in the 18th and 19th centuries, it has since been discredited as a pseudoscience. However, Lavater's work remains an important historical document, offering insights into the beliefs and attitudes of people during this time period.Being A Complete Epitome Of The Original Work Of J.
