In literature, "humiliated" functions as a potent marker of loss of dignity and social betrayal, capturing both personal pain and systemic injustice. It is used to illustrate moments when characters are stripped of pride—whether through crude misfortune that doubly degrades a man’s sense of self ([1]) or through the public shaming inflicted upon marginalized groups ([2]). The term further emphasizes the struggle against societal hierarchies, as characters fear becoming objects of derision and even take pride in their capacity to avoid or overcome such disgrace ([3], [4]). In dramatic narratives, humiliation often catalyzes internal conflict and external retaliation—a fallen pride that can drive one towards both self-destruction and a relentless desire to reclaim honor ([5], [6], [7]). Across various settings, from intimate personal defeats to blatant displays of condescension, "humiliated" encapsulates the painful intersection of vulnerability and social power ([8], [9]).
