It is also translated variously as weight, dignity, and importance and connotes restraint and moral rigor. It also conveys a sense of responsibility and commitment to the task.

Along with Шаблон:Lang (regard for discipline and authority), Шаблон:Lang, Шаблон:Lang, Шаблон:Lang (lucidity), Шаблон:Lang, Шаблон:Lang, and Шаблон:Lang, Шаблон:Lang was particularly appreciated as an ideal characteristic in leaders. Шаблон:Lang and Шаблон:Lang are considered more canonical virtues than the others.

Roman concept

Aeneas, depicted here with Venus, was considered the embodiment of Шаблон:Lang, Шаблон:Lang, Шаблон:Lang, and Шаблон:Lang.

Шаблон:Lang was one of the virtues that allowed citizens, particularly statesmen, to embody the concept of Шаблон:Lang, which denotes what it meant to be Roman and how Romans regarded themselves, eventually evolving into a national character. Many Roman philosophers praised Шаблон:Lang (perseverance, endurance, and courage), Шаблон:Lang, and Шаблон:Lang as the most important virtues; this is because they made dignified men capable. They accompany Roman actions. The men of the ruling upper and upper-middle classes were educated in a public school system where Classical language and literature formed basic elements of the curriculum.

Exuding Шаблон:Lang or dignified and serious conduct allowed Romans to maintain a persistent element of conservatism and traditionalism. According to the Roman emperor and philosopher Marcus Aurelius, the cultivation of Шаблон:Lang involves acting with sincerity and dignity, by being temperate in manner and speech as well as by carrying oneself with authority.Шаблон:Better source needed

Other sources associate Шаблон:Lang with living an austere lifestyle. It was one of the moral bases of the sanctioned control exercised by the Roman Шаблон:Lang (see Roman Censors). An account described how old statesmen who realized that they no longer meet the standards of Шаблон:Lang for failing to perform their public function with dignity and Шаблон:Lang committed suicide or simply refused taking food. This concerned how the Romans defined themselves and their honor.

During Augustus' regime, Шаблон:Lang was not included in the four cardinal virtues (Шаблон:Lang, Шаблон:Lang, Шаблон:Lang, and Шаблон:Lang) that were introduced to establish the myth of the Roman emperor and the model of a good ruler.

Greek presence

1. Logical argument (the ability to articulate your points clearly)
2. Emotion (the ability to create or control emotion in your listeners)
3. Character (the ability to convey integrity and goodwill)

Modern concepts

In the British education system, Шаблон:Lang was seen as one of the pillars of the moral formation of the English gentleman during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. This partly derived from the notion of aristocratic pedigree, indicating polish, grace in manner, and dignity in outward appearance. The British Empire also derived from the moral concept of Шаблон:Lang such that Шаблон:Lang and other Roman virtues were idealized in its imperial society and in the governance of its dominion. India, for instance, was ruled by men whose senses of power were imbued with Roman virtues. The concept of Шаблон:Lang also dominated the colonial Civil Service. The United Kingdom House of Commons also uses the term "bottom", which is the Conservative code for Шаблон:Lang.

Шаблон:Lang is also used in communication, particularly in speech, where it denotes the use of emphasis in order to give certain words weight. Self-monitoring questions can determine expressive behavior and affective display, which could translate to Шаблон:Lang in the way one conducts oneself or speaks.Шаблон:Relevance inline Self-monitoring questions can include: am I staying neutral, hindering direction, or am I helping to contribute with my participation?
