(impentience)--科科
要講下面這幾組字,我們得從源頭開始講起,先來看到這個字
imperator
n.(古羅馬的)軍事領袖
ps.在西元前四十四年,Caesar凱撒, (Gaius) Julius當上了最高司令官--就是
imperator這個職位
imper-這個字根的意思就是"command;命令" from L. imperātus
而imperator這個字,是後來是emperor皇帝的的詞源
imperative
imper-ative
adj.必須服從的 [absolutely necessary or required; unavoidable]
adj. 緊急的;極重要的 [requiring attention or action]
ex. It's imperative to act now.
adj. 【語】祈使法的
ex. Listen! Be silent.
Emperor
n.皇帝 [the male sovereign or supreme ruler of an empire]
淺談 Emperor與 King
Emperor這個字是源於imperator(軍事領袖),在羅馬Emperor是由"投票"出來的唷,由人
民和元老院選出來的"將軍",像Caesar就是這樣。不過後來Octavianus(屋大維)--凱撒的
義子,經過一連串的鬥爭,從三頭政治獲勝,屋大維得到了Augustus(尊嚴者)的稱號,雖
然和元老院一同統治,但實際上是獨裁統治。
而King泛指世襲制度下的一國之主,是代代相傳的。
不過後來西羅馬帝國掛掉了後,擁有Emperor稱號的King,通常在形式上被視為羅馬帝國
的繼承者,即羅馬帝國的「合法繼承者」(儘管這對於拜占庭帝國來說有些荒謬)。在中古
世紀,若要得到皇帝稱號的歐洲君主,按照慣例要去羅馬由教宗加冕。
Empire
n.帝國 [A political unit having an extensive territory or comprising a number
of territories or nations and ruled by a single supreme authority.]
ex. AOE = Age of Empire 世紀帝國
imperial
imper-ial

adj.專橫的;傲慢的 [domineering in a haughty manner; dictatorial]
ex. an imperious officer.
