QUÉ SIGNIFICA FLATTERING EN INGLÉS
Adulación
La adulación es el acto de dar cumplidos excesivos, generalmente con el propósito de congraciarse con el sujeto. Históricamente, la adulación se ha utilizado como una forma estándar de discurso al dirigirse a un rey oa una reina. En el Renacimiento, era una práctica común entre los escritores de halagar al monarca reinante, como Edmund Spenser halagó a la reina Isabel I en La Faerie Queene, William Shakespeare halagó el rey Jaime I en Macbeth y Niccolò Maquiavelo Lorenzo II de Medici, regente de Florencia Y Duque de Urbino, en El Príncipe. La adulación también se utiliza en las líneas de recogida cuando se trata de iniciar el romance romántico. Sin embargo, la mayoría de las asociaciones con halagos son negativas. Las descripciones negativas de la adulación se extienden por lo menos tan atrás en la historia como La Biblia. En la Divina Comedia, Dante representa a los aduladores que vadean en excrementos humanos, declarando que sus palabras eran el equivalente de excremento, en el octavo Círculo del Infierno. Un adulador insincero es un personaje común en muchas obras literarias. Los ejemplos incluyen lengua de serpiente de J. R. R. Tolkien el señor de los anillos, Goneril y Regan de rey Lear, e Iago de Othello.
