Revolution and Revolt
Revolution and revolt have a shared origin,
both ultimately going back to the Latin revolvere “to revolve, roll back.”
When revolution first appeared inEnglish in the 14th century,
it referred to the movement of a celestial bodyin orbit;
that sense was extended to
“a progressive motion of a body around an axis,”
“completion of a course,”
and other senses suggesting regularity of motion
or a predictable return to an original position.
At virtually the same time,
the word developed a sharply different meaning,
namely, ”a sudden radical, or complete change,”
apparently from the idea of reversal of direction
implicit in the Latin verb. Revolt,
which initially meant “to renounce allegiance,”
grew from the same idea of “rolling back,”
in this case from a prior bond of loyalty.
