The word "mar" demonstrates remarkable versatility in literature, serving multiple roles across genres and languages. In many instances, particularly in William Congreve’s The Way of the World, “Mar.” appears repeatedly, often as a shorthand or titular reference ([1], [2], [3], [4], [5]). In other works, notably in Benito Pérez Galdós’s Doña Perfecta, “Mar” is closely tied to the recurring character María Remedios, thereby emphasizing its function as a proper name ([6], [7], [8]). Moreover, the term is used in its adjectival or verbal sense in various texts—to denote the act of spoiling or impairing beauty, as seen in Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray and other moral or aesthetic discussions ([9], [10], [11]). Finally, in works like Dante’s Inferno, “mar” takes on a more symbolic and even literal sense by evoking the image of the sea ([12], [13]), underscoring its polysemous nature. This range—from a name to a descriptive verb—illustrates the layered and context-dependent usage of “mar” throughout literary history.
