QUÉ SIGNIFICA SUMPTUOUS EN INGLÉS

Ley suprartual

Sumptuary law

Las leyes suntuarias son leyes que intentan regular el consumo permitido. El Diccionario de la Ley de Black los define como "Leyes hechas con el propósito de restringir el lujo o la extravagancia, particularmente contra los gastos excesivos en materia de ropa, comida, muebles, etc." Tradicionalmente, eran leyes que regulaban y reforzaban las jerarquías sociales y morales a través de restricciones, a menudo dependiendo del rango social de una persona, sobre ropa permitida, comida y gastos de lujo. A través de la historia, las sociedades han utilizado las leyes suntuarias para una variedad de propósitos. Intentaron regular la balanza comercial limitando el mercado de bienes importados costosos. También eran una manera fácil de identificar el rango social y los privilegios, ya menudo se utilizaban para la discriminación social. Esto con frecuencia significaba evitar que los plebeyos imitaran la apariencia de los aristócratas ya veces también estigmatizaran a los grupos desfavorecidos. A finales de la Edad Media, las leyes suntuarias se instituyeron como un medio para que la nobleza tapara el conspicuo consumo de la próspera burguesía de las ciudades medievales, y continuaron siendo utilizadas para estos fines hasta el siglo XVII.

Sumptuary laws are laws that attempt to regulate permitted consumption. Black's Law Dictionary defines them as "Laws made for the purpose of restraining luxury or extravagance, particularly against inordinate expenditures in the matter of apparel, food, furniture, etc." Traditionally, they were laws that regulated and reinforced social hierarchies and morals through restrictions, often depending upon a person's social rank, on permitted clothing, food, and luxury expenditures. Throughout history, societies have used sumptuary laws for a variety of purposes. They attempted to regulate the balance of trade by limiting the market for expensive imported goods. They were also an easy way to identify social rank and privilege, and often were used for social discrimination. This frequently meant preventing commoners from imitating the appearance of aristocrats and sometimes also to stigmatize disfavored groups. In the Late Middle Ages, sumptuary laws were instituted as a way for the nobility to cap the conspicuous consumption of the prosperous bourgeoisie of medieval cities, and they continued to be used for these purposes well into the 17th century.
