coagency

English

Etymology

co- + agency

Noun

coagency (countable and uncountable, plural coagencies)

  1. Agency in common; joint agency.
    • 1825, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Aids to Reflection
      If indeed by the force of Matthew's example, by persuasion or by additional and more mysterious influences, or by an inward co-agency, compatible with the existence of a personal will, James should be led to repent; if through admiration and love of this great goodness gradually assimilating his mind to the mind of his benefactor, he should in his own person become a grateful and dutiful child then doubtless the mother would be wholly satisfied!
