Visualizing the invisible with the human body
Physiognomy and ekphrasis in the ancient world
Before scientific anatomy or Freud, the only way of divining someone¿s character or fate was to observe their external features and behavior. This volume focuses on two paradigmatic approaches to describing observable features and what they can tell us: physiognomy and ekphrasis. The fifteen contributions present the latest research on these modes of description from the Eastern Mediterranean, Mesopotamia and India in antiquity.
