The word “beget” is employed in literature with a striking versatility, functioning both as a literal term for procreation and as a metaphor for causation and generation. In its traditional sense, authors such as Plato ([1]) and Sophocles ([2]) use it to denote biological fatherhood and the natural process of producing offspring, while theological reflections—like Augustine’s meditations on eternal generation ([3])—extend the concept into the divine realm. Beyond this literal usage, “beget” is often deployed in a figurative sense to describe how actions or circumstances produce consequences or effects, as in Mark Twain’s dramatic assertion of producing “the fellow to this majestic lie” ([4]) or in David Hume’s remarks on mutual trust and confidence ([5], [6]). Scholarly texts and translations also highlight the term’s etymological roots in notions of “bringing forth” or “producing” ([7], [8], [9]), thereby reinforcing its rich dual identity in both the natural and the abstract.
