Nominative determinism
I happened on your mini-essay on the importance of names and really appreciated it. I was thinking something similar when writing Rigveda 1.32. It's a famous text with tons of good coverage but it doesn't really have a name and I think that's why no-one has written an article on it until now. Haukur (talk) 07:24, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
