Greek/Latin: In antiquity the term only referred to mutual accusations. Quintilian 3.10.4: mutuam accusationem, quae antikateegoria vocatur... duo genera erunt eius: alterum quo litigatores idem crimen invicem intentant, alterum quo aliud atque aliud. Later usage, followed by Lanham, widens the use of this term to cover mutual insult of any kind.
EX:"Sir, if you were my husband I would give you poison." Churchill: "Madame, if you were my wife, I would drink it."
Ancient Chinese: The accusatio concertativa is part of a horizontal dialogue in a non-hierarchical context. Such social contexts are comparatively rare in our pre-Buddhist sources, but there enough examples of it for one to be surprised that ACCUSATIO MUTUA is so rarely found. Isolated examples can be looked for in ZUANG and ZUO. Mutual insult is thoroughly conventionalised by the time of Sa1nguo2ya3nyi4 三國演義 .
Interestingly, this form is absent in LY which predominantly involves hierarchically structured dialogue - with notable exceptions.
