Origin: Of multiple origins. Partly a borrowing from French. Partly a borrowing from Latin. Etymons: French allegorizer, allegoriser; Latin allegorizare.

Etymology: < (i) Anglo-Norman allegorizer (13th cent., in a perhaps isolated attestation) and Middle French allegoriser, alegoriser (French allégoriser ) to express or interpret allegorically (1404), and its etymon (ii) post-classical Latin allegorizare to express or interpret allegorically (early 3rd cent. in Tertullian) < ancient Greek ἀλληγορία allegory n. + post-classical Latin -izare -ize suffix. Compare ancient Greek ἀλληγορεῖν to interpret allegorically.
