Английская Википедия:Goliardia
Шаблон:Short description Goliardia is a type of Italian university student association, similar to the fraternities and sororities of the United States and Canada or to the Studentenverbindung in Germany. Their mythology is built around a supposed link to a group of mostly young and disaffected clergy from the 12th to 13th century. Even if their membership has never reached a large audience, the numbers have been decreasing since the postwar initiatives of keeping these clubs alive, especially considering the acts of vandalism perpetrated by its members in major Italian cities like Padua,[1] Parma,[2] Trieste,[3][4] and Genoa.
Etymology
The word "goliard" or, better, "goliarda", is often considered the contraction of "Goliath Abelard". However, the word has an uncertain[5] and debated etymology.[6]
