Etymology

The word 'interlard' originates from the late Middle English period, deriving from the combination of the prefix 'inter-' meaning 'between' or 'among' and 'lard', which itself comes from the Old French 'lard', meaning 'bacon' or 'fat'. This original sense refers to the practice of mingling or mixing fat into meat, which evolved metaphorically to describe the mixing of different elements in writing or discourse. The term reflects a broader linguistic trend where culinary terms are used to describe processes of combining ideas or concepts. Over the centuries, interlarding has become a metaphor for the artful inclusion of different themes or elements to enhance the richness of a narrative or expressive work.
