Darwin, Charles, 1809-1882

"The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals"

) When a man sneers or snarls at another, is the corner of the upper
lip over the canine or eye tooth raised on the side facing the man
whom he addresses?
(8) Can a dogged or obstinate expression be recognized,
which is chiefly shown by the mouth being firmly closed,
a lowering brow and a slight frown?
(9.) Is contempt expressed by a slight protrusion of the lips
and by turning up the nose, and with a slight expiration?
(10) Is disgust shown by the lower lip being turned down,
the upper lip slightly raised, with a sudden expiration,
something like incipient vomiting, or like something spit out
of the mouth?
(11.) Is extreme fear expressed in the same general manner
as with Europeans?
(12.) Is laughter ever carried to such an extreme as to bring
tears into the eyes?
(13.) When a man wishes to show that he cannot prevent something
being done, or cannot himself do something, does he shrug his shoulders,
turn inwards his elbows, extend outwards his hands and open the palms;
with the eyebrows raised?
(14) Do the children when sulky, pout or greatly protrude the lips?
(15.) Can guilty, or sly, or jealous expressions be recognized?
though I know not how these can be defined.
