cormogenyとは 意味・読み方・使い方

名詞

cormogeny (usually uncountable, plural cormogenies)

1. (historical, biology, theory of recapitulation, rare) The study of the evolution of the forms of nationalities, ethnicities, races, etc. by observing the supposed ontogenic recapitulation of that phylogeny.

使用する際の注意点

As the theory of recapitulation presupposes "lower"/"less advanced" and "higher"/"more advanced" evolutionary forms, its application to nationalities, ethnicities, and races is, by modern standards, problematic from the outset.
