The term "laudatory" has been employed in literature with a range of nuances that highlight both sincere admiration and subtle, sometimes ironic, commentary. In some texts, it is used to convey extensive, well-detailed praise, as seen in the early biography of Plasencia that is described in far more laudatory terms [1]. Other authors apply the term to amplify expressions of commendation or to underscore the nature of a character's self-regard, such as the self-laudatory smile in Conrad's narrative [2]. The repetition “laudatory, extremely laudatory” in Sinclair Lewis’s work [3, 4] suggests a deliberate emphasis that may border on satire, while Dickens and others employ it to add a layer of appropriateness and amiability to character assessments [5]. Even in the realm of personal correspondence, as in the love letters to Victor Hugo [6], "laudatory" serves as a marker of heartfelt, if sometimes hyperbolic, praise. Overall, the word adapts to a wide spectrum of contexts in literature, underscoring the multifaceted nature of admiration and commendation.
