Literary notes about Consociate (AI summary)

In literature, the term "consociate" is often used to evoke the notion of an intrinsic, almost familial, connection among entities. In one context, it is employed to suggest the creative output or unity expected from a universal family, implying that such associations naturally yield significant results [1]. In another instance, the term highlights the difficulty in forming genuine bonds, as even those sharing names or superficial ties may struggle to truly connect, underscoring the subtleties of association [2]. Additionally, poetic usage conveys a more somber image, where elements as disparate as pleasure, nature, and death are urged to associate, thereby deepening the thematic resonance of intermingling forces in existence [3].
  1. Let us then try what the consociate, or universal family will produce.
    — from History of American Socialisms by John Humphrey Noyes
  2. Two of a feather do not more readily consociate, than two of a name, and of the genealogical fancy, contrive to strike up a relationship.
    — from Dealings with the Dead, Volume 2 (of 2) by Lucius M. (Lucius Manlius) Sargent
  3. How bad it is three lines will show:— 'Here, cold to pleasure's airy forms, Consociate with my sister worms, And mingle with the dead.' Gent.
    — from Life of Johnson, Volume 1 1709-1765 by James Boswell
