Definition of necessitudo

Definition: Necessitudo is a Latin word that means "need." In history, it had two meanings:

  1. An obligation
  2. A close connection or relationship between people, like family

Examples:

  • When a knight was given land by a lord, he had a necessitudo to serve and protect the lord.
  • Family members have a necessitudo to take care of each other.

The first example shows how necessitudo was used to describe a duty or responsibility. The knight had to fulfill his obligation to the lord who gave him land. The second example shows how necessitudo was used to describe a close relationship between family members. They have a strong connection and a responsibility to take care of each other.

The end of law is not to abolish or restrain, but to preserve and enlarge freedom.
