In this paper its author describes the results of experiments made with two intents—one, to endeavour to ascertain whether there can be a complete arrest of vital action without the death of the egg; the other to ascertain the changes which take place in those instances in which, during incubation, the egg proves unproductive.The eggs used were chiefly those of the common fowl. The trials to which they were subjected were of three kinds—the airpump, the ice-house, and immersion in lime-water.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau expressed the need to be genuinely understood. This need is manifest in the precision with which he describes in his Confessions the kinesthetic valence of his emotional experiences and the impact kinesic dialogues had on him. Several of the kinesic dialogues he records in his autobiography revolve around surprising shifts in tonicity, tone, and tempo in verbal utterances, gestures, and the vital action of breathing. This chapter considers four such passages, including a scene of writing in which Rousseau’s emotional state is specifically communicated by the very fact that his handwriting is unreadable owing to the trembling of his hand.

The observations which I have now the honour to submit to the Society were made chiefly with the intent to endeavour to ascertain whether, in the instance of the egg of the common fowl, that which may be presumed to be vital action can for a while be arrested, and yet be capable of renewal. Whilst this was the main object kept in view in conducting the trials, a secondary one was to observe, however cursorily, the changes which take place in the contents of the egg when vital development has been prevented.
