"Procris" Meaning

In Greek mythology, Procris was a mortal woman who was loved by the god Minos. She was known for her beauty and her husband, Minos' son Cephalus.

In English, the term "Procrustean" is used to describe a practice of violence or aggression used by the mythological figure Procrustes. A Procrustean solution or bed denotes a process of forcing something to fit by altering it to a predetermined form, often by violent or unacceptable means.

It could also be a reference to the style of criticism that demands conformity to a certain standard or norm, no matter the cost, a la Procrustes, who stretched or cut off the legs of his victims to fit them to his bed.
