Face Anthropology

Author's name: David LaBroton Publisher: Cultural Center for Books Year of publication: 2024 Literary classification: Philosophy and Thought Book overview: Anthropology of faces by David LaBroton ... the face is a continent with no limits to exploration, and publishing a book like this, even from an anthropological perspective, is a constant immersion in the emotional structure of humans, and the author (as is the reader) does not stop exploring the meanings of the faces that marked his personal life with illumination or complication, each of us exists only by the face we give to others’ eyes, even if necessarily changed by aging, or destroyed by illness or life accidents, but only other people are aware of our face, and we alone see their faces, and the pursuit of searching for the meanings of the face and its values according to cultures and their histories, and examining what individuals do with those social influences, leads to this long journey through the primitive forms of the sacredness of daily life, through attachment or aversion.
