I came across a theory by name 'literary etymology' which is different from mainstream etymology where attention is given to the history behind words. In literary etymology, attention is paid to a word's literariness rather than its history. I chanced on this passingly and have searched all over for that paper to no avail? Could anyone direct to any source on 'literary etymology'? I'd be happy.
