Condition: Near Fine

Description: 1873 Charles DARWIN 1ed Expression of Emotions in Man & Animal EVOLUTION Science The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals by Charles Darwin is a groundbreaking work in the fields of ethology, psychology, and communication theory, exploring the physical manifestations of emotions in humans and other mammals. Darwin meticulously examined facial muscles, vocal expressions, and other forms of non-verbal communication, correlating them with a wide array of emotions ranging from love, joy, and devotion to anger, fear, and surprise. He posited that these expressive actions are innate or inherited, challenging the notion that human facial expressions are uniquely endowed. This work represents a significant contribution to understanding animal behavior and the conveyance of emotional states, laying the foundation for future studies in these disciplines. Through his comprehensive analysis, Darwin establishes the universality of emotional expression across species, cementing this as a foundational text in the evolutionary sciences. Notably, the book is enriched with numerous photographs, featuring images from photographer Oscar Rejlander, making it Darwin s first work to utilize heliotype plates and one of the earliest integrations of photography in scientific publications.

(Freeman) o This work is the only work of Charles Darwin s to be illustrated with photographs and was his first to feature heliotype plates. Pictures come from photographer Oscar Rejlander, who decided to feature himself in many of the images. (Freeman). o Darwin examined the causes, physiological and psychological, of all the fundamental emotions in man and animals. He concluded that the chief expressive actions exhibited by man and by the lower animals are now innate or inherited , and that most of the movements of expression must have been gradually acquired.

Price: US$600.00 + shipping

Condition: Very Good

Description: vii+374+[14 ad] pages with figures, drawings, 7 plates (some folding) and index. Octavo (8" x 5 1/4 bound in original publisher's red cloth with gilt lettering to spine and ruled in black with design to cover. (DSB Freeman 1143. cf Garrison & Morton 4975) First American edition. The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals is Charles Darwin's third major work of evolutionary theory, following On The Origin of Species (1859) and The Descent of Man (1871). Originally intended as a section of The Descent of Man, it was published separately in 1872 and concerns the biological aspects of emotional life. In this book, Darwin sets out some early concepts of behavioral genetics, and explores the origins of such human characteristics as the lifting of the eyebrows in moments of surprise and the mental confusion which typically accompanies blushing. A German translation of The Expression appeared in 1872; Dutch and French translations followed in 1873 and 1874. A second edition of the book was published in 1890. Before Darwin, human emotional life had posed problems to the traditional philosophical categories of mind and body. Darwin's biological approach links mental states to the neurological organization of movement and he allows cultural factors only an auxiliary role in the shaping of expression. Darwin's interest can be traced to his time as a medical student and the 1824 publication of Sir Charles Bell's Anatomy and Philosophy of Expression which argued for a spiritual dimension to the subject. Darwin sought out the opinions of some leading British psychiatrists, notably James Crichton-Browne, in the preparation of the book which forms his main contribution to psychology. Amongst the innovations with this book are Darwin's circulation of a questionnaire (probably inspired by his cousin, Francis Galton) in his preparatory research; simple psychology experiments on emotional recognition with his friends and family; and (borrowing from Duchenne de Boulogne, a physician at the Salpêtrière) the use of photographs in his presentation of scientific information. The Expression of the Emotions is an important landmark in the history of book illustration.
