Definition of tragalism

1 sense · 1 part of speech · etymology included

noun

  1. (uncountable)lustfulness
    “Again, the Trimalconian banquets of the rich, with their voluptuous foods and the tragalism of the orgies too often following are parallels to the crapulous tropes of the Soledades.”
    “Tragalism may easily stand out as the main feature of the Grecian tales. A rollicking roistering work like The Midnight Court of the Protestant Brian Merriman can still be a schoolboy's text for examination, but only after severe bowdlerisation and expurgation.”
