*Warning: Potty Humor! Oh no! * Anthropomorphism appears throughout literature even more than good writing, before the well-known Aesop’s Fables to George Orwell’s Animal Farm, from Anubis to the Easter bunny, like one of my favorites, The Country Bunny and the Little Golden Shoes. Anthropomorphism, giving non-human creatures and entities human characteristics, creates endless possibilities in storytelling.
In the spirit of the new year, Morra Morron came up with a few new anthropomorphisms, and all the time, new ones coming in art and literature. Double-up on the powers of animals or elements, or showcase a human flaw.
Two hilarious examples of anthropomorphism…South Parks’ ManBearPig with Al Gore…
…and Family Guy’s Lois saved by a merman…
Easy to look up on YouTube.
Perhaps this year I’ll try a few anthros in writing, or throw some ideas to Morra Morron for a sketch up, and if ever there was a good idea for portraits…
Until next, keep laughing, keep reading!
