O QUE SIGNIFICA BEND THE KNEE EM INGLÊS

Genuflection

Genuflection

Genuflection, dobrando pelo menos um joelho para o chão, era desde os primeiros tempos um gesto de profundo respeito por um superior. Em 328 aC, Alexander the Great introduziu na sua etiqueta de tribunal alguma forma de genuflexão já em uso na Pérsia. No Império Bizantino, até mesmo os senadores deveriam se conformar com o imperador. Na Europa medieval, se demonstrou o respeito por um rei ou um nobre, descendo de joelhos, muitas vezes permanecendo lá até que se lecionasse subir. Tradicionalmente, é freqüentemente realizado em culturas ocidentais por um homem que faz uma proposta de casamento. Mais recentemente, o gesto é amplamente restringido às práticas religiosas católicas. A palavra latina genuflectio, a partir da qual a palavra em inglês é derivada, significava inicialmente ajoelhada, em vez de cair rapidamente em um joelho e imediatamente subindo que se tornou habitual na Europa Ocidental na Idade Média.

Genuflection, bending at least one knee to the ground, was from early times a gesture of deep respect for a superior. In 328 BC, Alexander the Great introduced into his court-etiquette some form of genuflection already in use in Persia. In the Byzantine Empire even senators were required to genuflect to the emperor. In medieval Europe, one demonstrated respect for a king or noble by going down on one knee, often remaining there until told to rise. It is traditionally often performed in western cultures by a male making a proposal of marriage. More recently, the gesture is largely restricted to Catholic religious practices. The Latin word genuflectio, from which the English word is derived, originally meant kneeling rather than the rapid dropping to one knee and immediately rising that became customary in Western Europe in the Middle Ages.
