QUÉ SIGNIFICA TYRANNY EN INGLÉS
Tirano
Un tirano, en su uso inglés moderno, es un gobernante de un carácter horrible y opresivo que es un gobernante absoluto sin restricciones por ley o constitución, y / o que ha usurpado la soberanía legítima. Un tirano generalmente controla casi todo. El término griego original, sin embargo, significaba meramente un soberano autoritario sin referencia al carácter, que no tenía connotación peyorativa durante el Arcaico y los períodos clásicos antiguos, aunque era claramente una palabra mala a Platón, y debido a la influencia decisiva de la filosofía política su Las connotaciones negativas sólo aumentaron en el período helenístico. Platón y Aristóteles definen a un tirano como "el que gobierna sin ley, mira a su propia ventaja más que a la de sus súbditos, y usa tácticas extremas y crueles contra su propio pueblo, así como contra los demás". Durante los siglos VII y VI aC, la tiranía se consideraba a menudo como una etapa intermedia entre la oligarquía estrecha y las formas más democráticas de la política. Sin embargo, a finales de los siglos quinto y cuarto, surgió un nuevo tipo de tirano, el dictador militar, específicamente en Sicilia.
