What is the word bachelor mean - Word и Excel - помощь в работе с программами

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A bachelor is a man who is not and has never been married.^[1]

Etymology[edit]

A bachelor is first attested as the 12th-century bacheler: a knight bachelor, a knight too young or poor to gather vassals under his own banner.^[2] The Old French bacheler presumably derives from Provençal bacalar and Italian baccalare,^[2] but the ultimate source of the word is uncertain.^[3]^[2] The proposed Medieval Latin *baccalaris («vassal», «field hand») is only attested late enough that it may have derived from the vernacular languages,^[2] rather than from the southern French and northern Spanish Latin^[3] baccalaria.^[4] Alternatively, it has been derived from Latin baculum («a stick»), in reference to the wooden sticks used by knights in training.^[5]^[6]

History[edit]

From the 14th century, the term «bachelor» was also used for a junior member of a guild (otherwise known as «yeomen») or university and then for low-level ecclesiastics, as young monks and recently appointed canons.^[7] As an inferior grade of scholarship, it came to refer to one holding a «bachelor’s degree». This sense of baccalarius or baccalaureus is first attested at the University of Paris in the 13th century in the system of degrees established under the auspices of Pope Gregory IX as applied to scholars still in statu pupillari. There were two classes of baccalarii: the baccalarii cursores, theological candidates passed for admission to the divinity course, and the baccalarii dispositi, who had completed the course and were entitled to proceed to the higher degrees.^[8]

In the Victorian era, the term «eligible bachelor» was used in the context of upper class matchmaking, denoting a young man who was not only unmarried and eligible for marriage, but also considered «eligible» in financial and social terms for the prospective bride under discussion. Also in the Victorian era, the term «confirmed bachelor» denoted a man who desired to remain single.

By the later 19th century, the term «bachelor» had acquired the general sense of «unmarried man». The expression bachelor party is recorded 1882. In 1895, a feminine equivalent «bachelor-girl» was coined, replaced in US English by «bachelorette» by the mid-1930s. This terminology is now generally seen as antiquated, and has been largely replaced by the gender-neutral term «single» (first recorded 1964). In England and Wales, the term «bachelor» remained the official term used for the purpose of marriage registration until 2005, when it was abolished in favor of «single.»^[9]

Bachelors have been subject to penal laws in many countries, most notably in Ancient Sparta and Rome.^[3] At Sparta, men unmarried after a certain age were subject to various penalties (Greek: ἀτιμία, atimía): they were forbidden to watch women’s gymnastics; during the winter, they were made to march naked through the agora singing a song about their dishonor;^[3] and they were not provided with the traditional respect due to the elderly.^[10] Some Athenian laws were similar.^[11]
Over time, some punishments developed into no more than a teasing game. In some parts of Germany, for instance, men who were still unmarried by their 30th birthday were made to sweep the stairs of the town hall until kissed by a «virgin».^[12] In a 1912 Pittsburgh Press article, there was a suggestion that local bachelors should wear a special pin that identified them as such, or a black necktie to symbolize that «….they [bachelors] should be in perpetual mourning because they are so foolish as to stay unmarried and deprive themselves of the comforts of a wife and home.»^[13]

The idea of a tax on bachelors has existed throughout the centuries. Bachelors in Rome fell under the Lex Julia of 18 BC and the Lex Papia Poppaea of AD 9: these lay heavy fines on unmarried or childless people while providing certain privileges to those with several children.^[3] In 1695, a law known as the Marriage Duty Act was imposed on single males over 25 years old by the English Crown to help generate income for the Nine Years’ War.^[14] In Britain, taxes occasionally fell heavier on bachelors than other persons: examples include 6 & 7 Will. III, the 1785 Tax on Servants, and the 1798 Income Tax.^[3]

A study that was conducted by professor Charles Waehler at the University of Akron in Ohio on non-married heterosexual males deduced that once non-married men hit middle age, they will be less likely to marry and remain unattached later into their lives.^[15] The study concluded that there is only a 1-in-6 chance that men older than 40 will leave the single life, and that after the age 45, the odds fall to 1-in-20.^[15]

In certain Gulf Arab countries, «bachelor» can refer to men who are single as well as immigrant men married to a spouse residing in their country of origin (due to the high added cost of sponsoring a spouse onsite),^[16] and a colloquial term «executive bachelor» is also used in rental and sharing accommodation advertisements to indicate availability to white-collar bachelors in particular.^[17]^{[better source needed]}

Bachelorette[edit]

The term bachelorette^[87] is sometimes used to refer to a woman who has never been married.

The traditional female equivalent to bachelor is spinster, which is considered pejorative and implies unattractiveness (i.e. old maid, cat lady).^[87] The term «bachelorette» has been used in its place, particularly in the context of bachelorette parties and reality TV series The Bachelorette.^[88]

Other forms: bachelors

There are two criteria needed in order to be a bachelor: one is that you can’t be married, and the other is that you have to be a man. Any people outside of these criteria are some other word.

The origins of bachelor are unclear, but some similar Latin words are baccalāris (“farm hand”), baccalārium (“dairy farm”), and bacca (“cow”). Maybe some bachelors spent a lot of time milking cows before getting married in the olden days. The phrase “eligible bachelor” means a guy who would make a great husband, and the phrase “confirmed bachelor” describes a man who is having so much fun being single that he’ll probably never marry. Either way, pronounce it like this: BATCH-uh-lur.

A bachelor party.

Every year, a little over 2 million American men lose their bachelerhood.

What is this word, bachelor?

The history is pretty loaded.

In «Spinster: Making a Life of One’s Own,» cultural critic Kate Bolick lays out ot:

Bachelor originally referred to men of inferior status in professions so demanding they precluded marriage. In thirteenth-century France this meant, for instance, a theological candidate who held merely a bachelor’s degree instead of a master’s.

Around 1300 the word crossed into English to describe low-ranking knights. Much later, Victorian matchmakers appropriated the term and added eligible, for an unmarried man blessed with financial and social inducements, and confirmed, for any who wanted to remain that way. By the late nineteenth century the term had neutralized to simply mean «unmarried man,» as it still does today.

The term got its first recorded mention in regard to a single dude in «the Canterbury Tales» by Geoffry Chaucer, surely the coolest book to be published in 1475. Not unlike the descriptions attached to bachelors today, Chaucer describes the Squire, the bachelor he mentions, as «lusty.»

knight

Back in Medieval Europe, bachelors were on their way to becoming full-fledged knights.

Hans Splinter / Flickr

In 1903, British scholar Alfred W. Pollard explained the bachelor thusly:

‘Bachelor’ in Chaucer’s time meant not merely an unmarried man, but distinctively a probationer for the honour of knighthood, or young knight. So Cambuscan in the Squire’s Tale is said to have been «Yong, fressh and strong, in armes desirous As any bacheler of al his hous.» In like manner a Bachelor at the university was a probationer for the full degree of Master.

So in multiple cases, a bachelor is a (usually) young man who’s yet to come to full fruition — a squire before becoming a knight, an undergraduate before becoming a graduate, a single young buck before a committed married man.

Perhaps that’s why the French expression for bachelor party is so lyrical and extreme: enterrement de vie de garçon, or «the burial of the life as a boy.»
