The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals Part 23

[Footnote 1326: See, for evidence on this subject, 'The Descent of Man,'

&c., vol. ii. pp. 71, 341.]

[Footnote 1327: H. Wedgwood, Dict. English Etymology, vol. iii. 1865, p.

184. So with the Latin word _verecundus_.]

[Footnote 1328: Mr. Bain ('The Emotions and the Will,' p. 64) has discussed the "abashed" feelings experienced on these occasions, as well as the _stage-fright_ of actors unused to the stage. Mr. Bain apparently attributes these feelings to simple apprehension or dread.]

Edgeworth, new edit. vol. ii. 1822, p. 38. Dr. Burgess (ibid. p. 187) insists strongly to the same effect.]

[Footnote 1333: In England, Sir H. Holland was, I believe, the first to consider the influence of mental attention on various parts of the body, in his 'Medical Notes and Reflections,' 1839 p. 64. This essay, much enlarged, was reprinted by Sir H. Holland in his 'Chapters on Mental Physiology,' 1858, p. 79, from which work I always quote. At nearly the same time, as well as subsequently, Prof. Layc.o.c.k discussed the same subject: see 'Edinburgh Medical and Surgical Journal,' 1839, July, pp.

17-22. Also his 'Treatise on the Nervous Diseases of Women,' 1840, p.

110; and 'Mind and Brain,' vol. ii. 1860, p. 327. Dr. Carpenter's views on mesmerism have a nearly similar bearing. The great physiologist Muller treated ('Elements of Physiology,' Eng. translat. vol. ii. pp.

937, 1085) of the influence of the attention on the senses. Sir J. Paget discusses the influence of the mind on the nutrition of parts, in his 'Lectures on Surgical Pathology,' 1853, vol. i. p. 39: 1 quote from the 3rd edit. revised by Prof. Turner, 1870, p. 28. See, also, Gratiolet, De la Phys. pp. 283-287.]

[Footnote 1334: De la Phys. p. 283.]

[Footnote 1340: Dr. Maudsley has given ('The Physiology and Pathology of Mind,' 2nd edit. 1868, p. 105), on good authority, some curious statements with respect to the improvement of the sense of touch by practice and attention. It is remarkable that when this sense has thus been rendered more acute at any point of the body, for instance, in a finger, it is likewise improved at the corresponding point on the opposite side of the body.]

Layc.o.c.k, 'Nervous Diseases of Women,' 1840, p. 110.]

[Footnote 1345: Prof. Layc.o.c.k has discussed this point in a very interesting manner. See his 'Nervous Diseases of Women,' 1840, p. 110.]
