词汇 | civil war |
词根词缀 | 词源: "battles among fellow citizens or within a community," from civil in a sense of "occurring among fellow citizens;" the sense is attested from late 14c., in batayle ciuile "civil battle," etc. The exact phrase is attested from 1494. Early use typically in ref. to ancient Rome. Later, in England, the struggle between Parliament and Charles I (1641-1651); in U.S., the War of Secession (1861-1865), an application often decried as wholly inaccurate but cemented by the use of the term in the popular "Battles and Leaders of the Civil War" series published 1884-87 in "Century Magazine"). |
