August Sander (1876-1964) was a German photographer working in Cologne. In the early 20’ of the last century he came up with an original idea to create a work of art which in a form of an atlas would show all kinds of people, jobs and social groups of the Weimar Republic. Initially the work entitled „The People of the XX the century” was to consist of 7 portfolios of portrait photographs, each devoted to one social class. However it was never to be published, nor finished by the author due to political circumstances of the Hitler rule and the World War II. In my essay I wanted to describe the general concept behind Sander’s work, inspirations both artistic and scientific. I intended to look into the question of photography considered as a document and therefore believed to be the most objective means of representation. I inquire into the nature of portrait photography: whether it is a mere record of one’s individual presence, or perhaps it shows something more general, a „face of that time”, or a „type” of a person, making reference to the images we carry in our minds. Finally, I wanted to draw attention to Sander’s skill and distinctive attentiveness that enabled him to take portraits that still capture our eyes and make us wonder about the past and people who lived in it.

This paper collects and analyzes ancient sources that refer to Pythagoras of Samos as the founder of physiognomy. Interest in physiognomy, which deals with the relationship between the body and the spirit, has become more popular over the last few years; however, many aspects of research into the topic are still obscure and worthy of further study. Physiognomy was assumed by ancient authors to be the method by which candidates were selected to enter the Pythagorean community, used by the Greek philosopher and his followers. Information about Pythagoras, who – by simply looking at somebody – could recognize their character appears, in the works of Aulus Gellius, Hippolytus, Porphyry, Iamblichos, Proclos and Olympiodorus. Apart from discussing testimonia about Pythagoras and his physiognomic examinations, the text explores the role of physiognomy during the selection process for the Pythagorean community in order to provide a better understanding of elite traditions within society. The paper also supplies further insight with regards to the methodology behind physiognomical surveys, which were popular during antiquity.

This article is devoted to the analysis and interpretation of the sense of touch in the early novel The Virtuous by Eliza Orzeszkowa. Touch is used in emotional or intentional tones, and in its character is the force of interaction: positive or negative. In the novel The Virtuous, touch in a physiognomical context was particularly important, which added diagnostic information about the nature of the literary hero. Due to the satirical content of the work, there was definitely more badness in tangibility that distinguished the small-town elite. Among the many categories of touch are “touch for show”, hidden touch, honourable touch, metaphorically-meta-physical touch, and empathic touch.
