In literature the word "arsenal" has been used in a multifaceted way, both as a concrete military installation and as a rich metaphor for a storehouse of resources. On one hand, authors like Victor Hugo and Sherman depict it as a physical site of military importance—whether it’s the headquarters of an ordnance officer ([1]), the target for deliberate destruction ([2],[3]), or a central institution where arms are stored and managed ([4],[5],[6],[7]). In geographical and historical narratives, writers such as Strabo and Marco Polo use "arsenal" to designate naval armories and defense structures adjoining harbors and cities ([8],[9],[10],[11],[12]). On the other hand, the term is stretched into metaphorical realms; for example, it appears as “an arsenal of spurious documents” to suggest a vast, if dubious, collection ([13]), and even as an “arsenal of peasant wit” to evoke the accumulation of humble, yet potent, resources ([14]). This duality in usage shows how "arsenal" can simultaneously connote tangible military might and serve as a versatile metaphor for an abundance of varied tools or ideas.
