Why this word is great
UNANIMISM — [Noun] A French literary movement, prominent in the early 20th century, that focused on depicting the collective consciousness and shared emotions of social groups. From French unanimisme, from unanime ("unanimous"), from Latin ūnanimus ("of one mind"), from ūnus ("one") + animus ("mind, spirit"). Unlike individualism, which cleaves to the primacy of the autonomous self, or symbolism, which traffics in private, esoteric icons, unanimism seeks the palpable psyche of the crowd. It is the electric shift in atmosphere when an audience holds its breath in unison, the mournful rhythm of a funeral procession moving as a single organism, and the shared, wordless melancholy that descends on a commuter train at dusk—the ephemeral architecture of a mind greater than the sum of its parts.
