QUE SIGNIFIE GENTLEMEN EN ANGLAIS

Gentilhomme

Gentleman

Dans le discours moderne, le terme «gentleman» se réfère à un homme de bonne conduite courtoise. Il peut également se référer à tous les hommes collectivement, comme dans les indications des installations séparées par sexe, ou comme un signe de la courtoisie de l'orateur lorsqu'il s'adresse aux autres. Dans son sens d'origine, le terme désignait un homme du plus petit rang de la gentry anglais, debout sous un écuyer et au-dessus d'un yeoman. Par définition, cette catégorie comprenait les fils plus jeunes des fils de pairs plus jeunes et les fils cadres de baronnettes, de chevaliers et d'écuyers en succession perpétuelle, et donc le terme capte le dénominateur commun de la gentillesse partagé par les deux constituants de l'aristocratie anglaise: Peerage et le gentry. En ce sens, le mot équivaut à la gentilhomme française, ce dernier terme a été, en Grande-Bretagne, longtemps confiné à la peerage; Maurice Keen souligne la catégorie des «messieurs» dans ce contexte, ce qui constitue «l'équivalent anglais contemporain le plus proche de la noblesse de France».

In modern speech the term gentleman refers to any man of good, courteous conduct. It may also refer to all men collectively, as in indications of gender-separated facilities, or as a sign of the speaker's own courtesy when addressing others. In its original meaning, the term denoted a man of the lowest rank of the English gentry, standing below an esquire and above a yeoman. By definition, this category included the younger sons of the younger sons of peers and the younger sons of baronets, knights, and esquires in perpetual succession, and thus the term captures the common denominator of gentility shared by both constituents of the English aristocracy: the peerage and the gentry. In this sense, the word equates with the French gentilhomme, which latter term has been, in Great Britain, long confined to the peerage; Maurice Keen points to the category of "gentlemen" in this context as thus constituting "the nearest contemporary English equivalent of the noblesse of France".
