I was just beginning to re read the last don and was wondering if anyone can tell me what 'Bruglione' means.

If I remember correctly, it was supposed to be something like a Baron (royal title). It's a figurative resemblence considering that it would be this person to represent the Clericuzio in his particular geographical area.
However, I can't remember why Don Clericuzio came up with the title Bruglione (mocking title that means something like Baron).
apparetnly b/c it means something likea blubbering idiot "who needs help doing the simplist of tasks" or s/t along those lines.
