The term “prodigy” in literature is employed in a range of nuanced ways, often connoting both extraordinary talent and remarkable, sometimes ominous, occurrences. It appears to celebrate exceptional beauty and ability, as in the portrayal of a young woman noted for her beauty [1, 2] or of a precocious individual whose capabilities exceed ordinary bounds [3, 4]. At the same time, it is used to describe phenomena of a supernatural or alarming nature, whether as an unusual event in a royal setting [5, 6] or as a portent of deeper forces at work [7, 8]. Moreover, the word finds its place in modern contexts, even as part of brand names that evoke a sense of technological marvel [9, 10, 11, 12]. Thus, literary authors employ “prodigy” both to herald exceptional human or natural phenomena and to underscore events that challenge conventional expectations [13, 14, 15, 16].
