The word “greater” in literature serves as a versatile comparative adjective that conveys notions of increased intensity, magnitude, importance, or quality. Its usage ranges widely—from proclaiming future marvels as seen in Dostoyevsky’s bold exclamation (“We shall see greater things!” [1]) to denoting superior responsibility or punishment in works of etiquette and religious texts ([2], [3]). Authors employ it not only for physical or quantitative comparison, as in economic contexts where proportions of debt or goods are discussed ([4], [5]), but also to highlight abstract or emotional contrasts, such as the deepening gulf between characters or the increased intensity of a feeling ([6], [7]). Whether used to enhance narrative drama or to underscore social, moral, or intellectual distinctions, “greater” functions as a powerful tool to elevate the comparative dimension in a wide spectrum of literary genres.
