Dr [[Samuel Johnson]], in his A ''Dictionary of the English Language'' (1755), defined honour as having several [[senses]], the first of which was "[[nobility]] of [[soul]], magnanimity, and a scorn of meanness." This sort of honour derives from the perceived [[virtue|virtuous]] conduct and personal integrity of the person endowed with it. On the other hand, Johnson also defined honour in [[relationship]] to "reputation" and "fame"; to "privileges of rank or birth", and as "respect" of the kind which "places an individual socially and determines his right to precedence." This sort of honour is not so much a [[function]] of [[moral]] or [[ethical]] excellence, as it is a consequence of [[power]]. Finally, with respect to women, honour may be synonymous with "chastity" or "virginity", or in case of a married woman, "fidelity".

Members call themselves L'Onorata, the "men of honour"; the lyrics to these songs prominently feature murder and revenge against betrayers and informers, and offer a glimpse into the self-image of a culture of honour.
