CO OZNACZA SŁOWO FLATTERING
Pochlebstwo
Nienawiść jest aktem nadmiernego uznania, na ogół w celu zaznajomienia się z przedmiotem. Historycznie, pochlebstwo było używane jako standardowa forma dyskursu, gdy zwracając się do króla lub królowej. W czasach renesansu popularność wśród pisarzy upiększyła panujący monarcha, a Edmund Spenser pochlebił królową Elżbietę I w "Faerie Queene", William Szekspir pochlebny King James I w Makbecie i Niccolò Machiavelli pochlebił Lorenza II de Medici, władcę Florencji i książę Urbino, w książce. Flattery jest również używany w liniach pick-up przy próbie zainicjowania romantycznych zalotów. Jednak większość skojarzeń z pochlebstwem jest negatywna. Negatywne opisy zasięgu pochlebstwa co najmniej tak daleko w historii jak Biblia. W Boskiej Komedii, Dante opisuje skłóconych ludzi w ludzkim odchodach, stwierdzając, że ich słowa są odpowiednikami ekskrementu w 8. Kręgu Piekła. Niewłaś ciwy frajer jest akordem w wielu dziełach literackich. Przykłady to Wormtongue z Władcy Pierścieni J. R. R. Tolkien, Goneril i Regan z Króla Leara, i Iago z Othello.
