ABSTRACT: “Event”, as a mainstream in contemporary philosophy, remains its hot status in various research areas. Since it has experienced a “linguistic turn” in philosophy, this paper mainly discusses the philosophical development of event ontology, event semantic, event relation and event process from some representative philosophers. The research results indicate that events gradually gained their historical status in relation to substance, and they can be described in a more dynamic and hierarchical way. Furthermore, this paper can also provide philosophical support to the study of corresponding concepts of time and space in literature, nouns and verbs in linguistics.
