Abstract:

A face strikes us immediately as sad, and so, too, do a mourner, a willow
tree, a house on a prairie, and a group of onlookers. The spontaneous
emergence of affective and other qualities of people, things, places, and
events falls under the heading of physiognomy, a phenomenon discussed since at
least Aristotle, and a key feature of evolutionary theory, psychology, and
perception as well as professional practice (“profiling”) and popular talk.
However, physiognomy is a controversial topic because of a suspect history,
and is often renamed as non-verbal communication. The Expressiveness of
Perceptual Experience: Physiognomy Reconsidered examines this venerable,
attractive, and contentious topic within the unique perspective of
research-oriented psychology. Included are the processes involved, primarily
perceptual; origins, mainly evolutionary; and social-cultural factors as
supplements. Discussed within a holistic-experiential
(phenomenological)-aesthetic framework are physiognomy’s ties to the arts as
well as emotions, synesthesia, learning, development, and personality.
Empirical investigations are summarized, including the author’s.
