Napoleon’s hatred of phrenology and the study of physiognomy

Phrenology: a pseudoscience that involves the measurement of bumps on the skull to predict mental traits.

Physiognomy: the supposed art of judging character or traits from facial characteristics. (Also a synonym for face features or expression)

Phrenology and physiognomy were popular theories during Napoleon’s lifetime which were believed to “establish a scientific and systematic relationship between facial and moral characteristics” (J. Christopher Herold). Napoleon expressed a strong disagreement with these ideas:

“Look at the idiotic theory of Gall [the founder of phrenology]: he attributes to certain prominences [of the skull] tendencies and crimes which are not inborn but which are merely products of society and of human conventions. What would become of the ‘bump of thievery’ if there were no property? What of the ‘bump of drunkenness,’ if there were no alcoholic beverages? What of the ‘bump of ambition,’ if there were no society?”

“One never must judge a man by his physiognomy. Men must be tested to be known. How many faces I had to judge in my life! What opportunities for acquiring experience! How many denunciations, how many reports have I listened to! And indeed I made it a fixed rule never to allow myself to be influenced either by facial traits or by words.”

Source: Mind of Napoleon: A Selection of his Written and Spoken Words (1955), J. Christopher Herold

“It is a mistake to say that the face is the mirror of the soul. The truth is, people are very hard to know, and yet, not to be deceived, we must judge them by their present actions, but for the present only.”
