Aggiungi al carrelloCondizione: Good. A printed "Phrenological and Temperamental" chart, filled out in manuscript by Prof. Henry Foster Smith for Mr. Thomas C. Ryall in January of 1860. Smith seems to be a relatively unknown figure, with one publication, "An essay on human magnetism, or the infant magnetism enrobed in its true panoply" (1844) attri…buted to him. The chart provides some background information on phrenology and temperaments, and then scores the subject on them-Ryall was mostly of "nervous" temperament. At the bottom is a longer description of Ryall based on his test results: "This gentleman has large mental force + a little under medium vital force - well-balanced temperament, blending activity, strength + force - social + domestic organs full - great firmness + ability with high self-esteem which is modified by large approbativeness - strong reflective organs + concentrativeness - moderate energy of character - very cautious + at times hesitating - but when aroused has much force - hope should be encouraged - Religious organs large with a high sense of justice - mechanical talent good - mathematics excellent - philosophical cast of mind - excellent for civil engineering - agricultural life quite good." We find no copies of Smith's chart, filled out or otherwise, on OCLC or offered for sale, at the time of writing. . Single-sided sheet measuring 12 ¾ x 16 ½ inches. Folded with some small tears at folds and one other small hole; other wrinkling and folds especially to corners; some toning and discoloration.
