Anthropomorphism is the act of giving animal or inanimate objects human attributes. I have an awesome book of Aesop's fables that is pure anthropomorphism. Considering Aesop was a slave, I find it a little ironic his penchant for anthropomorphism.
What is the opposite of anthropomorphism? The closest word I can find is zoomorphism. Which apparently is not a word according to my computer's spell check; as I write this sentence you are reading now there is a green dotted line under it which is my computer telling me the word is wrong.
