Writers use "repair" in diverse ways that reflect both its literal and metaphorical potentials. In many instances, it conveys the act of restoring something physical—mending a window [1], fixing a vessel [2], or even maintaining a building [3]—while in other contexts it suggests a return or approach, as when characters "repair" to a person or place [4][5][6]. The word also takes on a more abstract sense, highlighting the process of reestablishing order or honor, whether in correcting personal mistakes [7] or reuniting with social institutions [8]. Even in discussions of civic or institutional upkeep, "repair" emerges as a metaphor for renewal and rectification, demonstrating its versatile application across literary works [9][10].
