The word meme is a neologism coined by Richard Dawkins.It originated from Dawkins's 1976 book The Selfish Gene.The new soup is the soup of human culture.”Dawkins needed a noun to describe this concept of the transmission of an idea.He initially toyed with the Greek word mimeme, meaning imitation, but he wanted something shorter that gestured to the English gene.He landed on meme.
