anthropomorphism : ウィキペディア英語版 | anthropomorphism
Anthropomorphism is the attribution of human traits, emotions, and intentions to non-human entities.〔 Anthropomorphism is considered to be an innate tendency of human psychology . Personification is the related attribution of human form and characteristics to abstract concepts such as nations and natural forces likes seasons and the weather. Both have ancient roots as storytelling and artistic devices, and most cultures have traditional fables with anthropomorphized animals as characters. ==Name== Anthropomorphism derives from its verb form ''anthropomorphize'', itself derived from the Greek ''ánthrōpos'' (, "human") and ''morphē'' (, "form"). It is first attested in 1753, originally in reference to the heresy of applying a human form to the Christian God.〔''Oxford English Dictionary'', 1st ed. "anthropomorphism, ''n.''" Oxford University Press (Oxford), 1885.〕
