A to Z: Anthropomorphism and Zoomorphism
Anthropomorphism is the attribution of human forms or characteristics to non-human beings or objects, and zoomorphism is the use of animal forms in the same way. Think: personification of inanimate objects or abstract things such as emotions, machines, shape-shifters, the weather, cars, gods and goddesses, patterns using animal imagery, mythological beings, etc. Be imaginative!
