Re: Nominative determinism
You wouldn't believe how many eponymous examples are out there in the garden
literature. I have a whole folder of post-its with authors names that relate
to their individual work (hey, I have to amuse myself somehow slogging my way
through and indexing thousands of articles you write, 37000 in my database).
The name itself is not enough to warrant a place in my file, there are too
many Greens, Fields, Roots, Woodlands, etc. Haven't thought of a good use for
this file yet, here's a quick sampling I hope will amuse (if you're one of
the authors I hope you're not offended)
Bob Flowerdew, Companion planting
Jacqueline Sparrow, The return of the dovecote
Sheila Overy, Sex in your garden
Patricia Waterfall, Irrigation tune up
Ezra Haggard, restoring Victorian porches
It's the silly season of Cabin Fever!
Cheers,
