QUÉ SIGNIFICA SINGLE COMBAT EN INGLÉS

Combate singular

Single combat

El combate único es un duelo entre dos guerreros individuales que tiene lugar en el contexto de una batalla entre dos ejércitos. A menudo, es la guerra del campeón, con los dos considerados los campeones de sus lados respectivos. Se conocen instancias de combate único desde la Antigüedad Clásica y la Edad Media. Los campeones eran a menudo combatientes que representaban grupos de espectadores más grandes. Tales concursos representativos y sus historias son conocidos en todo el mundo. Típicamente, ocurre en la tierra del no-hombre entre los ejércitos de oposición, con otros guerreros que miran y se refrenan de luchar hasta que uno de los dos combatientes solos ha ganado. Pero un solo combate también podría tener lugar dentro de una batalla más grande. Tanto la guerra antigua como la medieval no siempre se basaban en la formación de la línea o la falange. La Ilíada describe en particular las batallas de la guerra de Troya como una serie de encuentros únicos en el campo, y el código medieval de caballería, en parte inspirado por esto, alentó el combate único entre caballeros individuales en el campo de batalla, en el que el perdedor no era por lo general Matado pero tomado cautivo para el rescate.

Single combat is a duel between two single warriors which takes place in the context of a battle between two armies. Often, it is champion warfare, with the two considered the champions of their respective sides. Instances of single combat are known from Classical Antiquity and the Middle Ages. The champions were often combatants who represented larger, spectator groups. Such representative contests and stories thereof are known worldwide. Typically, it takes place in the no-man's-land between the opposing armies, with other warriors watching and themselves refraining from fighting until one of the two single combatants has won. But single combat could also take place within a larger battle. Both ancient and medieval warfare did not always rely on the line or phalanx formation. The Iliad notably describes the battles of the Trojan war as a series of single encounters on the field, and the medieval code of chivalry, partly inspired by this, encouraged the single combat between individual knights on the battlefield, in which the loser was not usually killed but taken captive for ransom.
