The term "cantonment" in literature primarily conveys a military setting, often evoking images of strategic encampments and troop assemblies. In historical references such as those found in The New Gresham Encyclopedia, the word is used in a straightforward, descriptive manner to denote a military base located at a distance from a central community [1]. Thackeray, in Vanity Fair, employs the term more fluidly; he illustrates how figures of high society might be at ease both in formal cantonments and in less structured military camps, blending social and military contexts [2, 3]. Similarly, military literature like Baron de Jomini’s The Art of War uses "cantonment" to indicate specific strategic troop placements—sometimes associated even with notable historical figures such as Napoleon—to emphasize their importance in the broader scope of military tactics [4, 5].
