Происхождение

From Late Middle English spoliacioun (“looting, robbery, theft; an instance of this; (eccl

From Late Middle English spoliacioun (“looting, robbery, theft; an instance of this; (ecclesiastical) wrongful deprivation of the emoluments of a benefice due to another”), from Anglo-Norman spoliacioun, espolïacion, and directly from their etymon Latin spoliātiō (“plundering, robbing”), from spoliāre + -tiō (suffix forming nouns denoting a process, action, or result of an action). Spoliāre is the present active infinitive of spoliō (“to deprive or strip of clothing or covering, unclothe, uncover; (by extension) to pillage, plunder; etc.”), from spolium (“hide or skin stripped off an animal; (by extension) booty, spoil; etc.”). The English word was probably also influenced by French spoliation.
