'Pogonologia; Or, A Philosophical and Historical Essay on Beards' by J.-A. Dulaure. This collection of essays explores the societal attitudes towards beards throughout history, from their revered status in ancient cultures to their eventual decline and ridicule in modern times. Through anecdotes and scholarly research, Dulaure examines the significance of beards as a symbol of masculinity and power, and how it reflects the changing attitudes of society towards gender roles. Some of the featured essay titles in this book include 'Of Bearded Women', 'Of Whiskers', and 'Of Golden Beards'.
