解釋/意思:
adj. free from limits or conditions: complete: unlimited: free from mixture: considered without reference to other things: unconditioned unalterable: unrestricted by constitutional checks (said of a government): (gram.) not immediately dependent: (phil.) existing in and by itself without necessary relation to any other being: capable of being conceived of as unconditioned. In the sense of being finished perfect it may be considered as opposed to the Infinite; but in the sense of being freed from restriction or condition it is evident the Infinite itself must be absolute. Opposite schools differ on the question whether the Absolute can be known under conditions of consciousness.—adv. Ab′solutely separately: unconditionally: positively: completely.—ns. Ab′soluteness; Absolū′tion release from punishment: acquittal: remission of sins declared officially by a priest or the formula by which such is expressed; Ab′solutism government where the ruler is without restriction; Ab′solutist a supporter of absolute government.—adjs.

adj. Independent irresponsible. An absolute monarchy is one in which the sovereign does as he pleases so long as he pleases the assassins. Not many absolute monarchies are left most of them having been replaced by limited monarchies where the sovereign's power for evil (and for good) is greatly curtailed and by republics which are governed by chance.
