WordWatch: Is use of polymath emerging?
In a matter of minutes of online reading, I came across the use of polymath – in three different cases.
Dictionary.com defines the word as ”a person of great learning in several fields of study.”
Interestingly enough, the use was connected to Sidney Harman, the business leader who is buying Newsweek. He also sits on the board of The Aspen Institute, a think tank that focuses on ideas, civic life and education.
