Definition
The rank, dignity, or position of a baron; synonymous with barony when referring to the status rather than the territory.
Etymology
From baron plus -ship, the Old English suffix denoting rank, office, or condition. Similar formations include kingship, lordship, and kinship.
Kelly Says
Baronship and barony are near-synonyms but with subtle differences—baronship emphasizes the status and dignity, while barony emphasizes the territory and domain; English loves having multiple words for the same concept.
