horsification 

A word that was coined on a brilliant essay that receieved a 1 during the 1993 AP Literature exam. The student who wrote this essay asserted that since May Swenson's human speaker from "The Centaur" assumed horselike attributes rather than human ones, the word "personification" was irrelevant, thus "horsification" took its place.
Intro: Was May Swenson on drugs when she wrote this?!

Heroification

When we place someone on a pedestal and forgo the reality of their humanity thus erasing their flaws and our ability to perceive them humbly.
Helen Keller's story is a great example of heroification. We focus on the miracle of her ability to learn to speak and forgo the reality that she was a radical socialist. This retelling doesn't allow us to see her flaws and all, just like us. She becomes a hero instead of an ideal person.
