Webster's 1913 Dictionary

MANNERISM

Man "ner *ism, n. Etym: [Cf. F. maniérisme.]

 

Defn: Adherence to a peculiar style or manner; a characteristic mode of action, bearing, or treatment, carried to excess, especially in literature or art. Mannerism is pardonable, and is sometimes even agreeable, when the manner, though vicious, is natural. ... But a mannerism which does not sit easy on the mannerist, which has been adopted on principle, and which can be sustained only by constant effort, is always offensive. Macaulay.
