Summary:
"La espressione dei sentimenti dei nostri volatili domestici" by Teodoro Pascal is a scientific publication written during the early 20th century. The book delves into the expression of emotions in domestic birds, exploring how various species exhibit feelings such as joy, fear, and contentment, often drawing on Darwinian principles to explain their behaviors. In this work, Pascal thoroughly examines the emotional expressions of different domestic birds, focusing particularly on species like chickens, pigeons, and ducks. He discusses various principles, such as the association of useful habits and opposing actions, to illustrate how these birds convey their sentiments. For instance, he describes the unique flight patterns of tumbler pigeons as expressions of both fear and joy, while also illustrating the caring behaviors of parent birds towards their young. Pascal combines personal observation with scientific insights, creating a comprehensive look at avian emotional expressions that is both informative and engaging for readers interested in animal behavior and domestication.
