Hermogenean

“The erosion of the Cratylian language by Hermogenean influences is becoming more pronounced and there is a danger that it will desiccate that living language and render the natural language artificial.”

Camilo José Cela - Nobel Lecture

“Thus in that sense it would not be illogical to talk of Cratylian or natural or human language and of Hermogenean or artificial or parahuman language.”

Camilo José Cela - Nobel Lecture

“It goes without saying that Hermogenean language naturally accommodates its original artificiality.”
