CREATURE Copy link • CREATURECreated being or thing, res: res creata: natura: animal (animated being, living on the earth, whether man or beast; often also in contradistinction to man, as a rational being; and likewise of man, as term of contempt): animans (though used sometimes by Cic., in his philosophical writings for animal, PROP. denotes any being that exists by a power within itself; hence, also, used of the Deity, and of plants): homo (man, especially in the case in which we should use the word “creature” as term of compassion or contempt): negotium (being or thing; as term of contempt for a man, a woman, etc.; e.g., “that Teucris, a tedious creature indeed,” Teucris illa, lentum sane negotium, Cic., Att., 1, 12, in.; ☞ p. redit. in Sen., 6, 14): a rational creature, or a creature gifted with reason, animal intelligens or rationis particeps or ratione praeditum: an irrational creature, animal brutum (in plur., also, bruta only): ☞ creatura belongs to ecclesiastical Latinity: FIG. We are all the creatures of circumstances, omnibus nobis, ut res dant sese, ita magni atque humiles sumus (Terentianus, Hec., 3, 3, 20): a vile creature, nequam mulier: scelesta; scelus: there is not in the whole universe a more detestable creature than a tyrant, tyranno neque tetrius neque foedius animal ullum cogitari potest: that pestilent creature, Clodius, Clodius illud funestum animal: anybody’s creatures, alicujus assentatoresatque asseclae (his toadies); canes alicujus quos circa se habet (Cic., Verr., 2, 1, 48; but only of such dependents asassist tyrants, rapacious governors, etc., in plundering those under their power). Sometimes “creature” is used in English as a term of endearment for girl or woman, in which case it is to be turned by puella, virgo, mulier; e.g.,” that Teucris is an amiable creature,” Teucris illa suavissima puella (virgo, mulier); also by “anima, “e.g., ’O thou dear creature,” O tu carissima anima. An absolute dependent on the will of another, alicujus proprius (Nep., Lys., 1, 5: se illius fore proprium fide confirmarat): qui omnibus in rebus est in potestate alicujus: qui ex alicujus arbitrio pendet: *qui ad alicujus arbitrium, non ad suum vivit: Lentulus is the mere creature of Pompey, Lentulus est totus in potestate Pompeii (Cic.): [☞ The meaning of beneficiarii sui, Caes. B.C., 1, 75, is not certain; they were probably soldiers, who, having served their time and received rewards, etc., from the general, were afterward serving voluntarily with peculiar privileges.
