The word "opening" in literature functions as a versatile motif that bridges the literal and the figurative. It often evokes the image of a physical threshold—a door, an entrance, or even a gateway—providing passage from one state to another, as when a door is swung aside to reveal what lies beyond [1][2] or a narrow gap offers a glimpse into a room [3]. Beyond its tangible implications, "opening" frequently marks the inception of ideas or phases in a narrative. It can introduce a work through initial lines that set the tone [4][5][6], signal the start of an important venture or period, such as the beginning of a shop or a new act in a play [7][8], or even symbolize the natural unfolding of life through motifs like budding flowers [9] or the gradual emergence of thought [10][11]. This dual capacity to denote both concrete passage and conceptual beginnings enriches literary language by inviting readers to explore transitional moments on various levels.
