architect Explanation: Perhaps one can use architect here? -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 40 mins (2014-10-10 09:21:07 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I think it's a pretty good equivalent here. "Architect" has a meaning of "the deviser, maker, or creator of anything" (Random House Webster's Unabridged Dictionary), "the person who has the idea for something such as a plan or policy and makes it happen" (MacMillan English Dictionary for Advanced Learners), for example: - the architects of the Constitution of the United States - the great architect of the military victory - He was one of the principal architects of the revolution. - Jones was the architect of the team's first goal. - He is the main / chief / principal architect of the country's foreign policy. - She earned praise as the architect of a new school program. etc. |
