Meta (prefix)
Meta (from the Greek , ''meta'', meaning "after" or "beyond") is an adjective meaning "more comprehensive" or "transcending". In modern nomenclature, the prefix meta- can also serve as a prefix meaning self-referential, as a field of study or endeavor (metatheory: theory about a theory; metamathematics: mathematical theories about mathematics; meta-axiomatics or meta-axiomaticity: axioms about axiomatic systems; metahumor: joking about the ways humor is expressed; etc.). Original Greek meaning In Greek, the prefix ''meta-'' is generally less esoteric than in English; Greek ''meta-'' is equivalent to the Latin words ''post-'' or ''ad-''. The use of the prefix in this sense occurs occasionally in scientific English terms derived from Greek. For example, the term ''Metatheria'' (the name for the clade of marsupial mammals) uses the prefix ''meta-'' in the sense that the ''Metatheria'' occur on the tree of life adjacent to the ''Theria'' (the placental mammals).

Metagame
Metagame, Hypergame, or game about the game, is an approach to a game that transcends or operates outside of the prescribed rules of the game, uses external factors to affect the game, or goes beyond the supposed limits or environment set by the game. ''Metagaming'' might also refer to a game which functions to create or modify the rules of a sub-game. Thus, we might play a metagame selecting which rules will apply during the play of the game itself. Etymology The origin of the idea of metagames originally came from the game theory field, with ideas first published in the groundbreaking '' Theory of Games and Economic Behavior'' by John von Neumann and Oskar Morgenstern in 1944, though the term itself was not originally used in that work. The word can be found being used in the context of playing zero-sum games in a publication by the Mental Health Research Institute in 1956. It is claimed that the first known use of the term was in Nigel Howard's book ''Paradoxes of Rational ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
