What is the antonym of anthropomorphism?

Deification is the antonym when anthropomorphism means "ascription of human form or attributes to a god," and when anthropomorphism means "ascription of human attributes to something impersonal" the antithetical personification in the epigram,

"What is an epigram? A dwarfish whole:
Its body brevity and wit its soul,"

comes close.

DogRL, Anthropomorphism is the ascription of human attributes to non-human objects (animate or inanimate). Zoomorphism is the ascription of animal attributes to non-animal objects (animate or inanimate). But my wife claims that the true antonym of anthropomorphism, the ascription of the attributes of non-human objects to humans (e.g. Stonewall Jackson), is re-anthropomorphism, and she further claims it was used in this way by her philosophy professor at college. I was just hoping for confirmation.

I beg to differ slightly Iammas."Anthropomorphism is the ascription of human form and attributes to a god, or of human attributes to something irrational or impersonal". The purported antonym to the pre-eminent definition is deification (check question, definition and answer). Nouns don't have antonyms as well you may be aware. Perhaps the philosophy professor could discuss this with someone.

The answer is theomorphism.
