WAS BEDEUTET TYRANNY AUF ENGLISCH
Tyrann
Ein Tyrann, in seinem modernen englischen Gebrauch, ist ein Herrscher eines schrecklichen und bedrückenden Charakters, der ein absoluter Herrscher ist, der durch Gesetz oder Verfassung ungehemmt ist, und / oder einer, der legitime Souveränität usurpiert hat. Ein Tyrann kontrolliert in der Regel fast alles. Der ursprüngliche griechische Begriff bedeutete aber nur einen autoritären Souverän ohne Bezug auf den Charakter, der während der archaischen und frühen klassischen Perioden keine pejorative Konnotation hatte, obwohl es eindeutig ein schlechtes Wort für Platon war und wegen des entscheidenden Einflusses der politischen Philosophie Negative Konnotationen nur in die hellenistische Periode erhöht. Platon und Aristoteles definieren einen Tyrannen als "einer, der ohne Gesetz regiert, schaut zu seinem eigenen Vorteil eher als dem seiner Untertanen und benutzt extreme und grausame Taktik - gegen sein eigenes Volk und andere". Während des siebten und sechsten Jahrhunderts v. Chr. Wurde die Tyrannei oft als Zwischenstadium zwischen enger Oligarchie und demokratischeren Formen der Politik betrachtet. Doch im späten fünften und vierten Jahrhundert entstand ein neuer Tyrann, der Militärdiktator, speziell in Sizilien.
