Literature frequently employs the word “envious” to illuminate a range of resentful emotions, often portraying characters whose hearts are clouded by jealousy and ill will. It is used to accentuate moral degradation or inner turmoil, as seen when an “envious, evil heart” disrupts familial peace [1] or when a character’s disposition is marked by envious malice [2]. At times the word serves to underscore a broader social or cosmic antagonism, depicting how envy can pervade interpersonal dynamics or even jeopardize one’s fate, as in the portrayal of a fate “engulfed by envious” forces [3, 4]. Such usages enrich narratives by casting envy as both a personal failing and a destructive societal undercurrent.
