clerisy的词源解释,clerisy来源

clerisy(n.)

1818年,仿照德语 clerisei,源自晚期拉丁语 clericia,与 clericus 有关(参见 cleric); 显然是由柯勒律治创造的,他用它来表示“一个国家的学者、诗人、哲学家和学者”,“表达了一个不再与神职人员有关的概念”[OED]。但自19世纪40年代以来,它有时被用来表示“神职人员”,与平信徒区分开来。

The clerisy of the nation (a far apter exponent of the thing meant, than the term which the usus et norma loquendi forces on me), the clerisy, I say, or national church, in its primary acceptation and original intention comprehended the learned of all denominations;—the sages and professors of law and jurisprudence; of medicine and physiology; of music; of military and civil architec[t]ure; of the physical sciences; with the mathematical as the common organ of the preceding; in short, all the so called liberal arts and sciences, the possession and application of which constitute the civilization of a country, as well as the Theological. [Coleridge, "On the Constitution of the Church and State," 1830]
国家的知识界(比我所强调的用语更恰当地表达了所指的事物),我说,或国家教会,在其最初的接受和原始意图中,包括所有派别的学者; ——法律和法学的智者和教授; 医学和生理学; 音乐; 军事和民用建筑学; 物理科学; 以数学作为前述学科的共同 organ; 简而言之,所有所谓的文科和理科,其拥有和应用构成了一个国家的文明,以及神学。[柯勒律治,“论教会和国家的宪法”,1830年]
