'''Homage''' ({{IPAc-en|ˈ|h|ɒ|m|ɨ|dʒ}} or {{IPAc-en|ˈ|ɒ|m|ɨ|dʒ}}) is a show or demonstration of [[respect]] or [[dedication]] to someone or something, sometimes by simple declaration but often by some more oblique reference, artistic or poetic. The term is often used in the arts for where one author or artist shows respect to another by allusion or imitation; this is often treated and pronounced as the French ''homage''.<ref>{{citation |url=http://books.google.com/books?id=H4q8ZosSvB8C&pg=PA88 |title=The limits of interpretation |author=Umberto Eco}}</ref>

Revision as of 17:04, 19 May 2014

Homage (/ˈhɒm[invalid input: 'ɨ']/or/ˈɒm[invalid input: 'ɨ']/) is a show or demonstration of respectordedication to someone or something, sometimes by simple declaration but often by some more oblique reference, artistic or poetic. The term is often used in the arts for where one author or artist shows respect to another by allusion or imitation; this is often treated and pronounced as the French hommage.[1]

It was originally a declaration of fealty in the feudal system (see Homage (feudal))—swearing that one was the man (French: homme) of the feudal lord.[2] The concept then became used figuratively for an acknowledgement of quality or superiority. For example, a man might give homage to a lady, so honouring her beauty and other graces. In German scholarship, followers of a great scholar developed the custom of honouring their mentor by producing papers for a festschrift dedicated to him.[3]

In rock music homage can take the form of a tribute album or of a sample.[4] As of 2010, the digital techniques used to generate many forms of media make it easy to borrow from other works and this remediation may be used in homage to them.[5]
