преим.; ирон.дама-благотворительница, дама-патронесса [по имени действующего лица из пьесы Док. Фаркера (G. Farquhart 1678-1707) ‘‘Beaux’ Stratagem’]I recalled her as an energetic, autocratic personality... with a fondness for opening bazaars and playing the Lady Bountiful. (A. Christie, ‘The Mysterious Affair at Styles’, ch. I) — Она сохранилась в моей памяти властной, энергичной женщиной... из тех, кто любят открывать благотворительные базары и выступать в роли дамы-патронессы.
She felt that these independent citizens, who had been taught that they be longed to a democracy, would resent her trying to play Lady Bountiful. (S. Lewis, ‘Main Street’, ch. X) — Кэрол чувствовала, что эти независимые граждане, которым внушили мысль, что они жители демократической страны, возмутятся, если она вздумает разыгрывать из себя благодетельницу.
