In the long middle chapter devoted to the naming activities of man in different parts of the world -- a kind of applied toponymics illustrating the principles expounded in the more philosophically, more theoretically, more methodologically oriented portions of the book -- America and the British Isles, too, dominate the discussion, supplemented chiefly by coverage of the toponymy of classical Greece (Athens, Sparta, Thebes, Argos, Corinth, Delphi, etc.) and Rome (Rome, Latium, Florence, Pavia, etc.), of the Biblical Near East (Genesis 31: "And Laban called it Jegarsahadutha, but Jacob called it Galeed" is a beautiful example of dual naming, and Numbers 32: "And Nobah went and took Kenath, and villages thereof, and called it Nobah, after his own name" shows a devastating sense of personal achievement culminating in the right to name), and the age of exploration (Columbus the Namer!), whereas both Africa and Asia receive comparatively short shrift, and the Scandinavian countries, so well.    From Wordnik.com.  [VERBATIM: The Language Quarterly Vol II No 4] Reference
