The term “feckless” is deployed across literary works as a pointed descriptor for characters or groups who lack competence, initiative, or moral fiber. Writers use it not only to criticize ineptitude but also to inject humor or social commentary, whether remarking on a person’s cowardice and uselessness [1] or characterizing a figure’s whimsical or irresponsible behavior in regional dialect [2, 3]. In some texts the word underscores the shortcomings of management or personal conduct, as when an agriculturist disdains his own feckless administration [4], while in other passages it paints a portrait of lighthearted, absurd incompetence that serves to both entertain and provoke reflection [5, 6]. Thus, “feckless” functions as a multifaceted term that enriches character sketches and deepens the thematic layers of literary narratives.
