Eidology

/aɪˈdɒlədʒi/ noun

Definition

The study or science of images, forms, ideas, or essences; in philosophy, the study of eidos or ideal forms.

Etymology

From Greek 'eidos' (form/essence) plus '-ology' (study of), literally meaning 'study of forms' and connecting to Platonic philosophy about ideal forms.

Kelly Says

Eidology links to Plato's Theory of Forms—the idea that perfect, unchangeable 'forms' or ideals exist beyond what we see, making this word bridge ancient philosophy with modern cognitive science about how we recognize patterns.
