Specialty Definition: Famine

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

A famine is a situation when a certain country or area doesn't have enough available food and related resources to feed its population. As a result many affected by the famine are undernourished and die of starvation or thirst.

Famine is an ancient problem: famine was so well known in the ancient world that Famine was one of the biblical Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. As a result of the green revolution, the incidence of famine has been greatly reduced or eliminated in many parts of the world. However, in spite of the much greater technological and economic resources of the modern world, famine still occurs.

As observed by the economist Amartya Sen, famine is usually a problem of food distribution and poverty, rather than an absolute lack of food. In spite of this, people die. In many cases such as the Great Leap Forward or North Korea in the mid-1990s, famine is caused as an unintentional result of government policy. In other cases, such as Somalia, famine is a consequence of civil disorder as food distribution systems break down.

Hunger

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Hunger is applied literally to the need or craving for food; it can also be applied metaphorically to cravings of other sorts.

The term is commonly used more broadly to refer to cases of widespread malnourishment or deprivation among populations, usually due to poverty or adverse agricultural conditions; see famine.

The term hungry also simply means ready for a meal.

Fasting is the practice of voluntarily not eating for a short period of time.

Lexicography

Devil's Dictionary

SYCOPHANT, n. One who approaches Greatness on his belly so that he may not be commanded to turn and be kicked. He is sometimes an editor. As the lean leech, its victim found, is pleased To fix itself upon a part diseased Till, its black hide distended with bad blood, It drops to die of surfeit in the mud, So the base sycophant with joy descries His neighbor's weak spot and his mouth applies, Gorges and prospers like the leech, although, Unlike that reptile, he will not let go. Gelasma, if it paid you to devote Your talent to the service of a goat, Showing by forceful logic that its beard Is more than Aaron's fit to be revered; If to the task of honoring its smell Profit had prompted you, and love as well, The world would benefit at last by you And wealthy malefactors weep anew -- Your favor for a moment's space denied And to the nobler object turned aside. Is't not enough that thrifty millionaires Who loot in freight and spoliate in fares, Or, cursed with consciences that bid them fly To safer villainies of darker dye, Forswearing robbery and fain, instead, To steal (they call it "cornering") our bread May see you groveling their boots to lick And begging for the favor of a kick? Still must you follow to the bitter end Your sycophantic disposition's trend, And in your eagerness to please the rich Hunt hungry sinners to their final ditch? In Morgan's praise you smite the sounding wire, And sing hosannas to great Havemeyher! What's Satan done that him you should eschew? He too is reeking rich -- deducting you.
