in Grammar, a figure whereby one part of speech is used for another: e.g., velle suam eique est, for voluntas suae eique est; also, populus late rex, for populus late regnat.

in a more restrained sense, is a figure where the noun is repeated instead of the pronoun. The antimeria is frequent in the Hebrew, and is sometimes retained in our version of the Old Testament accordingly: e.g., Hear my voice, ye wives of Lamech, for my voice, Gen. iv. 23.
