[Contumelia]; Injuria; Offensio. 1. Contumelia (from contemnere) denotes a wrong done to the honor of another; injuria, a violation of another’s right. A blow is an injuria, so far as it is the infliction of bodily harm; and a contumelia, so far as it brings on the person who receives it, the imputation of a cowardly or servile spirit. Senec. Clem. i. 10. Contumelias, quæ acerbiores principibus solent esse quam injuriæ. Pacuv. Non. Patior facile injuriam, si vacua est contumelia. Phædr. Fab. v. 3, 5. Cic. Quint. 30, 96. Verr. iii. 44. 2. Contumelia and injuria are actions, whereas offensio denotes a state, namely, the mortified feeling of the offended person, resentment, in opp. to gratia. Plin. H. N. xix. 1. Quintil. iv. 2. Plin. Pan. 18. (iv. 194.)
