Research Abstract |
Lavater tried to give the physiognomy which had not been a science the status of science. Surveying his physiognomy and its reception history, I came to the following conclusions. 1) The so-called objectivity of observation and the transparency of observer is an invention of modernity. 2) Because the physiognomist himself unconsciously privileged as an objective observers and the technology is developed for this purpose, the face of the "other"(Levinas) remains to be hidden.
