Intelligence Tropes

Go To

"The mind, that ocean where each kind
Does straight its own resemblance find ;
Yet it creates, transcending these,
Far other worlds, and other seas ;
Annihilating all that's made
To a green thought in a green shade."
Andrew Marvell, "The Garden"

Exactly What It Says on the Tin; this is an index of tropes pertaining to intelligence and intellectuals.

Contrast with Anti-Intellectualism and Stupidity Tropes. See also Gambit Index, Indexed and Nerdy, Logic Tropes and Tropes on Science and Unscience. If you are looking for tropes related to "intelligence" in a military context, see Espionage Tropes. Tropes that deal with broad-based knowledge may fall under Tropes of Wisdom instead, although there is considerable overlap since expansive knowledge is often used as a way to demonstrate intelligence.
