The project aims to chart and analyse the representation of the human face in literary texts from the medieval to the contemporary era. It expects to generate comprehensive new knowledge about changing literary and textual discourses about the face by combining rhetorical analysis, the insights of cognitive literary theory, and digital methodologies. Significant outcomes include a deeper understanding of the cultural history of facial expression, identity and emotion, with particular attention to gender and ethnicity. The project’s engagement activities will illuminate the relationship between literary history and contemporary social understandings of the face and allow us to better understand current transformations in facial recognition.

该项目旨在绘制和分析从中世纪到当代文学文本中的人脸表现。它期望通过结合修辞分析，认知文学理论的见解和数字方法，产生关于改变文学和文本话语的全面的新知识。重要成果包括更深入地了解面部表情，身份和情感的文化历史，特别关注性别和种族。该项目的参与活动将阐明文学史与当代社会对面部的理解之间的关系，并使我们能够更好地了解当前面部识别的转变。
