Welcome to
The Ecphorizer
an online magazine of bold ideas
ecphorize vb trans [fr Gr εκφοροζ {to be} made known] To evoke ideas or dispositions from a latent to a manifest state. cf. OED
Hello and welcome! I'm Tod Wicks, your host and editor of The Ecphorizer Online, an online magazine that has its roots in the print magazine of the same name published in the 1980s.
This site serves two purposes:
-
To memorialize on the Internet the creative work that The Ecphorizer brought to readers 20 years ago or more,
-
To continue that great forum with new articles and new authors.
In the great tradition that began in 1981 with the original Ecphorizer, the intent of this site is to publish opinions, stories, articles, and the occasional bit of humor.
To ecphorize, broadly interpreted, is to bring forth the latent ideas and judgments buried in the backs of people's minds. It is hoped that The Ecphorizer will stimulate ideas which will become contributions to this e-zine, which in turn (it is anticipated) will be considered thought-provoking and enjoyable reading by our visitors.
Readers are encouraged and welcome to submit items for publication as well as constructive feedback on any article or on The Ecphorizer as a whole.
Go to our Contact Information page to learn how to submit feedback or items for publication.
NOW, feel free to browse our site! You can select from the many options in the menus at left.
Anniverary Time! In October, 2010, we quietly celebrated our 10th anniversay online. Here's looking forward to another ten years!
