Word: Namierise Part of Speech: verb 1. Alternative form of Namierize. Labels: alt-of, alternative Example: Hence I have always kept trying, with indifferent success, to persuade good historians to Namierise the present: this has been left too much in the hands of sociologists, not well briefed about the intimate details of recent history, and of political pamphleteers (as in the Left Book Club days) to whom we in political science owe much. Example: The reappraisal of Augustan politics in particular, the reassertion that the post-Revolution era saw a protracted and bitter party struggle over religion, finance, and Britain's role in Europe, not to mention the lingering legacy of a disputed succession, has forestalled any attempt to Namierise the period as a whole, and has heightened the contrast between the volatility of the opening decades and the near-stultification of the mid-century.

But that's where said citizen would betray his innocence of legislative namesmanship. 3. The pursuit of status by having things named after oneself. Labels: uncountable Example: Our human trait of unwillingness to admit word ignorance often leads to survival of duplicated or spurious meanings. There is now no doubt that namesmanship has hindered the analysis of published knowledge quite seriously, and this will be outlined below Example: But more recent history has been marked by a departure from namesmanship to functionality — companies with names that say what they do. The result is that when the founders leave, their names do, too. 4. The art of name-dropping or giving the names of people who are involved with a project, in order to confer status or legitimacy. Labels: uncountable Example: In his preface, a scholar can practice two kinds of namesmanship. In Downward Namesmanship, the author lists those who assisted him: students, secretaries, librarians, and so on, which shows he is important enough to command such resources. Example: Not content with that, he offers the names of some authors who are well disposed to religion, who "say yes". (This seems to be the game of "namesmanship.") 5. Skill in knowing and pronouncing names. Labels: uncountable Example: “Namesmanship” is vital in manners; it consists of making your own name clear to other people about you while being certain you memorize their names the first time around. Example: In a letter to the editor referring to an earlier piece about names that were difficult to pronounce or spell (J.C. Furnas, "In the Names We Go By,", Dec. 28, 1957) the writer suggests: "How could J. C.
