Characterology
Characterology is a method of character study combining revised physiognomy, reconstructed phrenology and amplified pathognomy, with ethnology, sociology and anthropology
- Pathognomy is the study of passions and emotions. It refers to the expression of emotions indicated by the voice, gestures and facial expression
- Phrenology is a pseudomedicine primarily focused on measurements of the human skull
- Anthropology is the study of humans and human behaviour and societies in the past and present
- Ethnology is the branch of anthropology that compares and analyses the characteristics of different peoples and the relationship between them
- Sociology is the scientific study of society, including patterns of social relationships, social interaction, and culture
- Physiognomy is the assessment of character or personality from a person’s outer appearance, especially the face
