Woolsack

El Woolsack es la sede del Señor Presidente en la Cámara de los Lores, la Cámara Alta del Parlamento del Reino Unido. En el siglo XIV, el rey Eduardo III ordenó que su Lord Canciller, mientras estaba en consejo, se sentara en un fardo de lana, ahora conocido como "The Woolsack", para simbolizar la naturaleza central y la enorme importancia del comercio de lana para la economía de Inglaterra en la edad Media. De hecho, fue en gran medida para proteger las rutas vitales de comercio de lana inglesa con Europa continental que la batalla de Crécy se luchó con los franceses en 1346. Desde la Edad Media hasta 2006, el presidente de la Cámara de los Lores fue el Lord Chancellor y el Woolsack usualmente se mencionaba en asociación con la oficina de Lord Chancellor. En julio de 2006, la función de Lord Speaker fue dividida de la de Lord Chancellor. El Woolsack es un cojín grande rellenado de lana o asiento cubierto con tela roja; No tiene ni una espalda ni brazos, aunque en el centro de la Woolsack hay un respaldo. La Maza de los Lores se coloca en la parte trasera del Woolsack. En 1938, se descubrió que el Woolsack estaba, de hecho, relleno con crin.

The Woolsack is the seat of the Lord Speaker in the House of Lords, the Upper House of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. In the 14th century King Edward III commanded that his Lord Chancellor whilst in council should sit on a wool bale, now known as "The Woolsack", in order to symbolise the central nature and huge importance of the wool trade to the economy of England in the Middle Ages. Indeed, it was largely to protect the vital English wool trade routes with continental Europe that the Battle of Crécy was fought with the French in 1346. From the Middle Ages until 2006, the presiding officer in the House of Lords was the Lord Chancellor and the Woolsack was usually mentioned in association with the office of Lord Chancellor. In July 2006, the function of Lord Speaker was split from that of Lord Chancellor. The Woolsack is a large, wool-stuffed cushion or seat covered with red cloth; it has neither a back nor arms, though in the centre of the Woolsack there is a back-rest. The Lords' Mace is placed on the rear part of the Woolsack. In 1938, it was discovered that the Woolsack was, in fact, stuffed with horsehair.
