Literary notes about communication (AI summary)
The word “communication” in literature appears in a variety of contexts that reveal its rich and multifaceted nature. In some texts, communication is depicted as a sacred or transformative act, as when divine messages are conveyed from Christ ([1], [2], [3]) or when a letter’s arrival alters a recipient’s experience ([4], [5]). In other instances, it serves as a practical means of connecting disparate people or coordinating complex efforts—whether in military operations ([6], [7], [8], [9]), in everyday interactions marked by misunderstanding or emotional distance ([10], [11], [12]), or even in technological contexts where data and ideas are exchanged via modern systems ([13], [14], [15]). Furthermore, authors sometimes treat communication metaphorically, equating it with art or as a symbol of shared experience and understanding ([16], [17]). Together, these varied uses demonstrate how literature employs the concept of communication to explore everything from personal relationships and institutional exchanges to abstract expressions of creativity and connectivity.
