gentleman词源中文解释

大约在1200年,可能在12世纪中期,"出身名门的男子,出身好的男子",也延伸到罗马贵族和古希腊贵族,来自 gentle + man (n.); 这个复合词可能是以旧法语的 gentilhomme 为模型(英语的 gentleman 本身在18世纪被借用到法语中)。

在晚期中英语中有特定的用法(small gentleman, gentleman-of-arms, gentleman-usher 等),因此在英格兰,这个词通常指的是任何高于自由农民社会地位的男子,包括贵族,但有时仅限于那些有盾徽但没有头衔的人; 在美国,指的是"有财产的男子,不从事商业或职业"(1789年)。这个英语词汇从一开始就有一个特殊的含义,即"行为符合骑士精神和基督教理想的贵族",并且 gentleman 开始被宽泛地用于任何有良好教养、礼貌、善良、荣誉、严格尊重他人感情等的男子。

[The Gentleman] is always truthful and sincere ; will not agree for the sake of complaisance or out of weakness ; will not pass over that of which he disapproves. He has a clear soul, and a fearless, straightforward tongue. On the other hand, he is not blunt and rude. His truth is courteous ; his courtesy, truthful ; never a humbug, yet, where he truthfully can, he prefers to say pleasant things. [The Rev. John R. Vernon, "The Grand Old Name of Gentleman," in Contemporary Review, vol. XI, May-August 1869]
[绅士]总是真实而诚挚的; 不会因为讨好或软弱而同意; 不会忽视他所不赞同的事情。他有一颗清澈的灵魂,和一个无畏、直率的舌头。另一方面,他并不生硬和粗鲁。他的真理是有礼貌的; 他的礼貌,真实; 从不是一个伪君子,然而,只要他真实地可以,他 prefers 说愉快的事情。[约翰·R·弗农牧师,"绅士的伟大老名字",在《当代评论》第十一卷,1869年5月-8月]

最终,在礼貌的使用中,它开始指的是一般的男子,不论社会地位。相关的: Gentlemen。Gentleman's agreement 首次出现在1929年。Gentleman farmer 自1749年开始记录,"一个有钱的男人,大规模经营农业,雇佣工人,自己几乎或完全不做工作" [Craigie, "美国英语词典"]。
