Etymology

The word 'escape' originates from the Latin term 'excapere', which means to take out or to exclude. This term evolved through Old French as 'escaper' before being adopted into Middle English. The concept of escape has been deeply ingrained in human culture, illustrating a desire for freedom and safety. Historically, it has been associated with various contexts, including military tactics, literature, and mythology. Escape narratives are commonly found in stories where characters seek to overcome oppression or find their way back to safety. Over time, the meaning has expanded to encompass both physical escapes and metaphorical escapes from emotional or mental constraints. In modern use, 'escaping' can also refer to withdrawing into entertainment or other forms of distraction as a way to cope with stress.
