Among the most widespread uses of this concept is the one that allows us to account for that individual who excels in the activity, task, job, profession and field in which he works.
Person who stands out in an activity, profession or task due to intelligence, charisma, ability ...
The intelligence that someone has, their skill and technique, the charisma that he holds , among others, are some of the issues for which a person may be considered an eminence.
Nothing better than an example to make the meaning of the term clearer.
A doctor who has spent years and years dedicating himself to a specialty in an impeccable and perfect way, because he has managed to counteract diseases from the treatments he indicated, will be considered an eminence in the specialty in which he works, and then everyone will want to treat themselves with him, and of course he will also receive recognition from colleagues.
Also, when an individual is very good with mathematics in general it will be said that he is just an eminence in this discipline.
Meanwhile, the person who is valued and outstanding in some field or task will be called eminent.
It is eminent for the original and essential contributions made
The eminent stands out from the average and from the rest of his peers because he has made substantial, original contributions that changed the course of events in the field in question.
It is usually applied to scientists, intellectuals, doctors, physicists, among others, but it is important to say that in any professional environment it is possible to run into eminent people who stand out for some special contribution, or for the effort they put into their work.
It is for these issues that the eminent person will be a reference, and by case a constant source of consultation by colleagues and other people or actors who demand their authorized opinion for something.
On the other hand, a person can be eminent for his moral value.
Catholic religion: title of honor given to cardinals and the Grand Mastre of the religious order of Malta
On the other hand, at the request of the Catolic religion, the eminence is a title of honor granted by this to the cardinals, and to the Grand Master of the Order of Malta.
The latter is a Catholic order that was created in the 11th century, in Jerusalem, against the background of the crusades, by a group of merchants who, in addition to health activities, carried out military actions against Muslim and Arab militias.
It was born in 1048 at the hands of merchants in Jerusalem who decided to join forces to create a hospital for pilgrims, after the approval of the government that gave them free rein to build it next to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher.
In 1113 it will receive the recognition of Pope Paschal II, while its members adopted the rule of Saint Augustine.
Its constitution establishes a religious and secular conformation because it has lay members, and because it does not require a community life.
Its main activities are health and social assistance to those most in need.
As we pointed out, the Grand Master is the highest authority, therefore he has a treatment of highness and eminence.
For the Catholic Church he is like a cardinal, and the states with which he maintains a diplomatic relationship treat him like a head of state.
It has the power to promote laws, promulgate management acts, administer the assets of the order and seal international agreements.
It is a position that lasts a lifetime and is elected by the Plenary Council of State.
At present, since April 20, 2017, the Italian diplomat, intellectual and religious Giacomo Dalla Torre del Tempio di Sanguinetto, is the Grand Master of the Order of Malta.
Topography: elevation of a terrain
AND in topography we also find a meaning for the word at hand, which refers in general terms to the elevation presenting a terrain.
Also designated as high, the eminence is a part of the lithosphere (surface layer of the earth) that is characterized by the elevation that it presents in relation to the surrounding surfaces.
The topographic eminence is composed of the following parts: the base or foot, which is where the mentioned elevation begins; peaks, which is the maximum elevation and implies its culmination; and the slopes, represented by those terrains with variable inclination, which extend from the base to the tip.
These elevations are popularly called hill, mountain, mount and hill.
