The term “graceless” in literature has been used with striking versatility, often serving as an insult, a descriptor of moral or physical deficiency, or even as a character’s proper name. In some works it underscores a lack of physical elegance or refinement—as seen when characters are scathingly labeled for their clumsiness or uncouth behavior ([1], [2], [3])—while in others it emphasizes a moral void or unsophisticated nature ([4], [5], [6]). Intriguingly, authors sometimes play with irony and transformation; for example, in Bunyan’s works a character initially known as Graceless eventually assumes a new identity reflecting redeemed qualities ([7], [8], [9]). Thus, “graceless” oscillates between literal and figurative interpretations, demonstrating the flexible and evocative power of language across diverse literary landscapes ([10], [11]).
