WHAT DOES FAVOURITE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

favourite

Favourite

A favourite or favorite, was the intimate companion of a ruler or other important person. In medieval and Early Modern Europe, among other times and places, the term is used of individuals delegated significant political power by a ruler. It is especially a phenomenon of the 16th and 17th centuries, when government had become too complex for many hereditary rulers with no great interest or talent for it, and political institutions were still evolving. The period 1600-1660 saw particular successions of all-powerful minister-favourites in much of Europe, particularly in Spain, England, France and Sweden. The term is also sometimes employed by conservative writers who want to avoid terms such as «royal mistress», or «friend», «companion» or «lover» of either sex. Several favourites had sexual relations with the monarch, but the feelings of the monarch for the favourite covered the full gamut from a simple faith in the favourite’s abilities, through various degrees of emotional affection and dependence, to sexual infatuation.


Definition of favourite in the English dictionary

The first definition of favourite in the dictionary is most liked; preferred above all others. Other definition of favourite is a person or thing regarded with especial preference or liking. Favourite is also a competitor thought likely to win.
