In literature, the term "consent" is deployed with remarkable flexibility, oscillating between the realms of personal autonomy and broader socio-political agreements. Authors use it to depict characters’ explicit acceptance or refusal in intimate or contractual situations, such as in refusals to extend courtesy or duty [1, 2] and in negotiations over relationships and matrimonial arrangements [3, 4]. In parallel, consent emerges in discussions of power and legitimacy, where its granting or withholding underpins debates about authority and collective will [5, 6, 7]. This linguistic versatility reflects an enduring fascination with the balance between individual will and imposed obligation, a theme that continues to resonate across diverse historical and cultural narratives [8, 9].
