What is the word “a person who studies all subjects”?
What is the phrase “one who enjoys
- learning”? 9 answers
I think it may have to be “philosopher”, but I am not sure.
Does philosophy be involved with any other subject matter?
How can I describe a person who studies all subjects?
If a scientist studies science, theologian studies religion, is there a word which can describe both?
That’s what the expression ‘___________’
in a sentence might be: The universe is infinite. It is constantly learning, and it can change.
As science will be
to science, everything will be to science.
Edit:
The word is likely to end with -ist or -er. The word should describe a person who study everything. What makes up the word “everythingologist” so
great?
Is it funny how you ask that?
Philosophy means “love of wisdom” in the original Greek language. As a nation, it encompassed many entities that today are viewed as separate disciplines. Certainly the famous line from William Shakespeare’s Hamlet would indicate that back in Shakespeare’s time philosophy still included natural sciences, though not necessarily art and literature:
There are more things in Heath and land, Horatio,
Than are dreamed of in your philosophy.
After natural sciences, besides natural sciences, was religion made a separate discipline. In modern times, theology and philosophy became separate from each other.
I’m afraid there’s no specific word that would describe a person who actually studied (i.e. other studies). I’m afraid there is no word that would describe a person who does study (i.e. other schools) at college. I have a working familiarity with (working, whichever discipline out there) every possible discipline out there.
e.g. a
pansophist is a person who claims or pretends to have studied
everything. a
polymath is someone who is versed in more than one discipline, but not necessarily
both.
