1873réf. A2091vii37414 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 Species1859 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.

A HANDSOME COPY FRESH AND FINE AND UNUSUALLY SO FOR ANY 19TH CENTURY PRINTING OF DARWIN. This is an important volume of Darwin's evolutionary writings and was written in part at least as a confutation of the idea that the facial muscles of expression in man were a special endowment. It was more importantly along with his 1871 book ‘The Descent of Man’ part of Darwin's attempt to address questions of human origins and human psychology using his theory of evolution by natural selection. Darwin noted the universal nature of facial expressions in the book: ".the young and the old of widely different races both with man and animals express the same state of mind by the same movements.

réf. 78530London John Murray 1872. REPRINT Bruxelles Culture et Civilisation 1969-1970. 8vo 21.5 x 14.0 cm. vi 374 pp.; 20 text illustrations six photographic plates two double-sized folded. Full mock leather. Spine with gilt title. = This is a seldom-seen luxury facsimile edition of Charles Darwin careful views on behaviour in animals and in the human species with a strong emphasis on the latter. This is widely regarded as Charles Darwin's third major work of evolutionary theory ".following On the Origin of Species 1859 and The Descent of Man and Selection in Relation to Sex 1871. Initially intended as a chapter in Descent of Man Expression grew in length and was published separately in 1872. Darwin explores the biological aspects of emotional behaviour and the animal origins of human characteristics like smiling and frowning shrugging shoulders lifting eyebrows in surprise and baring teeth in an angry sneer. Before Darwin human emotional life had posed problems to the traditional philosophical categories of mind and body. Darwin's interest in the subject can be traced to his time as an Edinburgh medical student and the 1824 edition of Anatomy and Philosophy of Expression by Charles Bell which argued for a spiritual dimension to the subject. In contrast Darwin's biological approach links emotions to their origins in animal behaviour allowing cultural factors only an auxiliary role in shaping the expression of emotion. This biological emphasis highlights six different emotional states: happiness sadness fear anger surprise and disgust. It also appreciates the universal nature of expression implying a shared evolutionary heritage for the entire human species. Darwin also points to the importance of emotional communication with children in their psychological development. . The book involves several innovations: Darwin circulated a questionnaire probably inspired by his cousin Francis Galton during his preparatory research; simple psychology experiments on the recognition of emotions with his friends and family; and like Duchenne de Boulogne a physician at the Salpêtrière Hospital the use of photography in his presentation of scientific information. Darwin's publisher warned him that including the photographs would "make a hole in the profits" of the book''." Wikipedia. A mint copy. hardcover

Publisher's terra-cotta cloth with gilt titles on spine; decorative devices stamped in black on upper and lower covers; i-vii; 1-374pp 14pp ads; seven inserted leaves of plates three folding; text illus. Spine ends and board edges a bit rubbed with tiny bit of cloth flaking at base of spine; internally complete and quite fresh the endpapers and hinges clean and strong text firm and unmarked; in all a tight Very Good copy. A key work in Darwin's evolutionary canon originally intended as a section of The Descent of Man but published separately for cost considerations. Darwin's meticulously documented thesis that certain expressions of emotion are if not universal then at least highly correlated across human cultures as well as across animal species has never been seriously challenged. The heliotype plates most of which are printed from original negatives represented an important milestone in scientific book illustration; they were included at considerable expense despite the objections of Darwin's publishers who warned that their inclusion would "poke a terrible hole" in the book's profits. A quite nice copy of a book which while not strictly uncommon is typically found well-worn. D. Appleton & Co unknown

1872réf. 189795London: John Murray 1872. Completing Darwin's evolutionary writings First edition first issue "written as a confutation of the idea that the facial muscles of expression in man were a special endowment" Freeman. The plates are among the earliest commercially reproduced photographs in a scientific book. While researching this work Darwin invited the photographer Oscar Rejlander to make comparative studies of laughter and crying obtained photographs of asylum inmates from the asylum director James Crichton-Browne and consulted the French physiologist Guillaume Duchenne on his electrical research on facial muscles. In the first issue "that" is spelled correctly on the first line of page 208. The plates are lettered with Roman numerals; another state is known in Arabic numerals without priority of issue. Freeman suggests that the Arabic numeral plates were printed first but notes that "the two states seem to occur at random in the two issues of the text and Darwin's own copy at Cambridge has the Roman" Freeman. Octavo. With 7 tissue-guarded heliotype plates of which 3 folding woodcut illustrations within text. With 4 pp. publisher's advertisements dated November 1872 at rear.
