A word I just made up this second, while discussing demi-intellectual.

I haven't really decided on a definition, but I'm thinking about an intellectual who is only concerned with one hemisphere. For example, a western-centric intellectual, who believes all civilization started with the Greeks. You could also have an Eastern hemi-intellectual, who concentrates on Buddhism.

Alternatively, this could refer to a right-brain/left-brain intellectual.
