Temperament types and characteristics of a sanguine
In the second century AD, the physician Galen distinguished between four types of temperament, drawing on distinctions from the ancient physician Hippocrates. Both thinkers believed that the human body contained substances such as bile, phlegm, blood and melanos – the black bile responsible for negative moods. In their opinion, it is these substances or juices that influence human behavior and specific temperamental traits and the character attributed to the person. Melancholicy they have a predominance of bile – yellow and black (melanos) in their bodies, which makes them prone to depression and withdrawal from life and contacts with other people, cholera are people whose bodies are dominated by bile, which makes them quick-tempered and sometimes overly ambitious, phlegmatics they have a predominance of phlegm and are rather cautious in action and interpersonal contacts in the body they can’t get it blood predominates.
