The word "edify" in literature has traditionally conveyed the idea of moral or intellectual improvement through instruction. In early religious writings such as The Imitation of Christ, edifying discourse was depicted as a means to cultivate humility and devotion in one’s company, encouraging discussions that uplifted the spirit [1]. Alexander Pope later evolved its usage by suggesting that while corrective shocks might be necessary for some, they could simultaneously edify others, reflecting the multifaceted nature of learning and transformation [2]. In more narrative texts, such as Macdonell’s account of Sanskrit literature, characters share tales with the aim of edifying each other, reinforcing personal viewpoints through mutual instruction [3]. However, as seen in works like Uncle Tom’s Cabin, there is also a recognition that not all subjects or methods have the capacity to edify every reader, especially when detached from their religious context [4]. Similarly, discussions in texts on social reform remark on how certain types of questions, if not properly measured, may fail to edify audiences, pointing to the delicate balance between inquiry and instruction [5].
