More about the book
The book explores the influence of Lavater on eighteenth-century German literature and the evolution of physiognomy in Western thought. Dr. Tytler analyzes how literary portraits in modern novels reflect advancements in character description techniques and the observational skills of narrators and characters, particularly from the 1790s onward. By connecting these developments to the physiognomical ideas of the time, the work offers a deeper understanding of character representation in fiction.
