Literary notes about Protocol (AI summary)
In literature, protocol is a multifaceted term that is deployed both literally and metaphorically. In technical discourses, it denotes a set of defined rules and data transfer procedures, as seen in discussions of communications systems ([1], [2], [3], [4]). In legal and diplomatic contexts, protocol often signifies formalized agreements or procedures, lending an air of authority and structure to documents and speeches ([5], [6], [7]). Meanwhile, in narrative fiction and political rhetoric, protocol can serve as a symbolic device—sometimes underscoring bureaucratic absurdities or evoking sinister undertones within a broader ideological framework ([8], [9], [10], [11]). This variety in usage highlights how protocol bridges the gap between the technical, the legal, and the literary, enriching texts by drawing on its inherent connotations of order and formality.
