upraising
Hoisting something higher
Upraising is the act of raising up or lifting, whether literally or figuratively.
The word appears in contexts of elevation or revolt: the upraising of voices in protest, an upraising of the masses.
It functions as both a noun and the present participle of upraise, though both forms are uncommon in modern usage.
