The Groom of the Stool (formally styled: "Groom of the King's Close Stool") was the most intimate of an English monarch's courtiers, responsible for assisting the king in excretion and hygiene. The physical intimacy of the role naturally led to his becoming a man in whom much confidence was placed by his royal master and with whom many royal secrets were shared as a matter of course. This secret information—while it would never have been revealed, for it would have led to the discredit of his honour—in turn led to his becoming feared and respected and therefore powerful within the royal court in his own right. The office developed gradually over decades and centuries into one of administration of the royal finances, and under Henry VII, the Groom of the Stool became a powerful official inv

  • La Kortegano de la Tabureto (angle Groom of the Stool, el "Kortegano de la reĝa klozeta tabureto" "Groom of the King's Close Stool") estis la plej intima pozicio, titolo ĉe la angla kortego, respondeca pri asistado de la reĝo ĉe ekskrementado kaj rita purigo. La fizika intimeco de la rolo nature igis lin (eĉ ŝin dum regado de reĝino) plej konfidinda viro/virino de la reĝo, kun kiu multaj reĝaj sekretoj estis dividitaj. Tiu akiro, aliro de sekretaj informoj kondukis lin/ŝin al timita kaj respektita homo, tiel potenca ene de la reĝa kortego, en sia propra rajto. La oficejo disvolvis laŭgrade dum jardekoj kaj jarcentoj en unu al administrado de la reĝaj financoj, kaj dum Henriko la 7-a, la Kortegano de la Seĝo iĝis potenca oficialulo, implikita en starigo de nacia fiska politiko, en la "ĉambro-sistemo" (angle "chamber system").

The office developed gradually over decades and centuries into one of administration of the royal finances, and under Henry VII, the Groom of the Stool became a powerful official involved in setting national fiscal policy, under the "chamber system". Later, the office was renamed Groom of the Stole. The Tudor historian David Starkey classes this change as classic Victorianism: "When the Victorians came to look at this office, they spelt it s-t-o-l-e, and imagined all kinds of fictions about elaborate robes draped around the neck of the monarch at the coronation"; however, the change is in fact seen as early as the 17th century.

  • Il Groom of the Stool era uno degli incarichi della casa reale del Regno Unito. Egli era un cortigiano responsabile di assistere il sovrano inglese durante le sue minzioni ed abluzioni. La natura intima dell'incarico faceva sì che tale carica fosse ricoperta da una persona con la quale il sovrano aveva una notevole confidenza, a tal punto da divenire nei secoli una persona temuta e rispettata a corte a discapito dell'incarico svolto, visto dalla storiografia moderna come vile e di secondo piano. L'ufficio andò a svilupparsi gradualmente nel corso dei decenni al punto che già all'epoca di Enrico VII d'Inghilterra egli aveva delle competenze in materia fiscale nel cosiddetto "chamber system".

  • Groom of the Stool (den kungliga toalettassistenten) var ett engelskt ämbete som infördes av Henrik VII vid början av 1500-talet. Den som var Groom of the Stool skulle bland annat hjälpa monarken med dennes toalettbesök, då kungen ansåg sig för fin för att smutsa ner sig själv. Detta var en högt eftertraktad position, eftersom man blev en av monarkens mest intima tjänare, vilket gav Groom of the Stool stor möjlighet att påverka monarken och utverka favörer. Groom of the Stool fick mer och mer betydelsefulla uppgifter och till slut infördes positionen Groom of the Stole istället för Groom of the Stool 1660, ett ämbete som inte hade något med toalettbesök att göra. Groom of the Stole var en av monarkens närmaste män, och fick diverse viktiga uppgifter, som till exempel att hjälpa till att besluta om finanspolitiken. År 1901 avskaffades ämbetet Groom of the Stole. (sv)
  • Камергер стула (англ. Groom of the Stool, официальное название Groom of the King’s Close Stool) — придворный (камергер), помогающий монарху в удовлетворении его естественных потребностей. В обязанности камергера входило обеспечение короля всеми принадлежностями для туалетных нужд. Несмотря на необычность должности, она была очень востребована даже среди дворян и давала ряд привилегий. Физическая близость роли камергера стула приводила к тому, что он становился той персоной, которому король доверял и с которым делился многими секретами. Камергер короля был слугой мужского пола, отвечал за поставку чаши с водой и полотенец, а также осуществлял контроль за диетой короля и работой его кишечника. (ru)
