Overview

First published in Naples in 1832, Andrea de Jorio's work soon became famous for its descriptions and depictions of Neapolitan gestures, but it is only with the recent expansion of scholarly interest in gesture that its true importance has come to be recognized. It is the first book ever written to present an ethnographic study of gesture.
