Literary notes about Depositor (AI summary)

In literature, the term "depositor" has been used to evoke a sense of vulnerability and trust, particularly in contexts involving the management or mismanagement of valuables—whether financial or emotional. For example, in Chekhov’s narrative [1], the word underscores the betrayal felt by someone who, much like a bank depositor entrusting his money, has placed blind faith in another party only to be deceived. This usage enriches the reader’s understanding of the character's experience by drawing on the familiar connotations of risk and loss inherent in the role of a depositor, thereby deepening the emotional and symbolic impact of the narrative.
  1. I have been deceived as no bank depositor, no duped husband has ever been deceived!
    — from Project Gutenberg Compilation of Short Stories by Chekhov by Anton Pavlovich Chekhov
