Emotion
\E*mo"tion\, n. [L. emovere, emotum, to remove, shake,
stir up; e out + movere to move: cf. F. ['e]motion. See
Move, and cf.
Emmove.]
A moving of the mind or soul; excitement of the feelings,
whether pleasing or painful; disturbance or agitation of mind
caused by a specific exciting cause and manifested by some
sensible effect on the body.
[1913 Webster]
How different the emotions between departure and
return! --W. Irving.
[1913 Webster]
Some vague emotion of delight. --Tennyson.
Syn: Feeling; agitation; tremor; trepidation; perturbation;
passion; excitement.
Usage:
Emotion,
Feeling,
Agitation. Feeling is the
weaker term, and may be of the body or the mind.
Emotion is of the mind alone, being the excited action
of some inward susceptibility or feeling; as, an
emotion of pity, terror, etc. Agitation may be bodily
or mental, and usually arises in the latter case from
a vehement struggle between contending desires or
emotions. See
Passion.
“Agitations have but one
character, viz., that of violence; emotions vary with
the objects that awaken them. There are emotions
either of tenderness or anger, either gentle or
strong, either painful or pleasing.” --Crabb.
[1913 Webster]
