Misoponia

Dictdef of a word of more or less ancient Greek. When you remove the synopsis of the Praise of Folly, and the external link, which both belong on Erasmus, there's nothing left; and I can't imagine anyone looking up Misoponia: i.e., Merge, no redirect. — Bill 12:19, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)

• Delete. All this info would be much better at home at Erasmus or Praise of Folly. Wyllium 14:53, 2004 Oct 21 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect to Praise of Folly. Had another author picked up this impersonation, or had it played a more important part, it would have been worthy of a discussion as a character or topos. However, it was a coinage by Erasmus. (E.g. one could have articles on Sans Foi, Sans Joi, and Sans Loi, because they're actual characters who do things in Fairy Queen, but Praise of Folly is more of a dialogue and less of a fiction.)
