Literary notes about TIRADE (AI summary)
The term "tirade" in literature often conveys a prolonged, impassioned outburst that reveals a character’s emotions or ideologies. Authors employ it to heighten dramatic tension, whether through a profane, breathless diatribe that exposes raw anger [1] or a measured, yet piercing speech that unmasks ideological convictions [2]. In some narratives, a tirade becomes a turning point that marks vulnerability or a shift in interpersonal dynamics—for instance, when a character’s flowing diatribe gradually softens into a moment of regret [3] or is met with an unexpected reaction [4]. The versatile use of the word thus underscores both the intensity of human expression and the literary craft of shaping character and conflict [5, 6].
