"The hand of mysticism, hysteria, hallucinations, and religious mania." The caption doesn't say this is the hand of a mystically-minded person who experiences hysteria, hallucinations, and religious mania. Rather, it suggests that the hand itself embodies mysticiam, hysteria, hallucinations, and religious mania. Therefore, the illustration is transformed into a talisman, akin to the Hand of Fatima. From New Discoveries in Palmistry by Joseph Bryant Hargett, 1901.

Spontaneity, Jacob Moreno, who proposed stringing together "now and then
flashes" to unfetter illusion and let imagination run free. The images
we have collected for this series came at a tremendous price, which we explained previously.] |
