In literature, the word “difference” is a remarkably versatile term, employed to capture contrasts and distinctions ranging from the quantitative to the qualitative. In historical and analytical texts, authors use it to denote variances in context or data—for example, Gibbon’s reference to distinctions in time and character [1] and Adam Smith’s economic disparities [2] illustrate how measured differences can have significant implications. Meanwhile, in novels and essays, “difference” often highlights subtle shifts in perception, character, or social dynamics, as seen when Mark Twain calls for clarity in disparity [3] or when Thomas Hardy and D. H. Lawrence explore nuanced portrayals of human condition [4, 5]. Philosophers and psychologists, such as William James and Immanuel Kant, use the term to dissect the essence of perception and judgement [6, 7], suggesting that understanding these differences is key to grasping broader truths. This multifaceted use of “difference” adds layers of meaning to texts, enabling authors to bridge the gap between abstract theory and lived experience.
