Writers employ the word “which” as a flexible relative pronoun to add detail and nuance by introducing clauses that expand on or specify preceding nouns. It is used to subtly interweave additional information about objects, actions, or concepts, as when a physical attribute is further detailed – for instance, describing a bosom which resembled the back of a hand [1] – or when a name is imbued with symbolic meaning, as in a woman named Eve, which signifies the mother of all living [2]. In other passages, “which” connects ideas and actions, clarifying relationships between thoughts or events—such as an idea that transcends ordinary perception [3] or a final triumph that need not be begrudged [4]—thus enhancing the richness and continuity of the narrative.
