EVENT
E*vent", n. Etym: [L. eventus, fr. evenire to happen, come out; e out
+ venire to come. See Come.]
1. That which comes, arrives, or happens; that which falls out; any
incident, good or bad. "The events of his early years." Macaulay.
To watch quietly the course of events. Jowett (Thucyd. )
There is one event to the righteous, and to the wicked. Eccl. ix. 2.
2. An affair in hand; business; enterprise. [Obs.] "Leave we him to
his events." Shak.
3. The consequence of anything; the issue; conclusion; result; that
in which an action, operation, or series of operations, terminates.
Dark doubts between the promise and event. Young.
Syn.
– Incident; occurrence; adventure; issue; result; termination;
consequence; conclusion.
– Event, Occurrence, Incident, Circumstance. An event denotes that
which arises from a preceding state of things. Hence we speak or
watching the event; of tracing the progress of events. An occurrence
has no reference to any antecedents, but simply marks that which
meets us in our progress through life, as if by chance, or in the
course of divine providence. The things which thus meet us, if
important, are usually connected with antecedents; and hence event is
the leading term. In the "Declaration of Independence" it is said,
"When, in the cource of human events, it becomes necessary." etc.
Here, occurrences would be out of place. An incident is that which
falls into a state of things to which is does not primarily belong;
as, the incidents of a journey. The term is usually applied to things
of secondary importance. A circumstance is one of the things
surrounding us in our path of life. These may differ greatly in
importance; but they are always outsiders, which operate upon us from
without, exerting greater or less influence according to their
intrinsic importance. A person giving an account of a campaign might
dwell on the leading events which it produced; might mention some of
its striking occurrences; might allude to some remarkable incidents
which attended it; and might give the details of the favorable or
adverse circumstances which marked its progress.
