The professor’s polemical lecture on economic inequality divided the auditorium cleanly between those who cheered and those who walked out.
Polemical derives from the Greek polemikos, meaning “warlike” or “hostile,” from polemos (“war”). It entered English in the 17th century as a theological and philosophical term, describing fierce written disputes between religious factions — before broadening to cover any form of aggressive intellectual combat.
