In literature, "stagnation" is often employed to evoke a multifaceted sense of stillness and decay that permeates society, the individual mind, and nature itself. Writers use the term to denote physical and systemic inertia—for instance, illustrating a city's lifeless condition where even commerce grinds to a halt [1][2][3]. At the same time, it appears in reflections on human relationships and intellectual rigor, warning that a lack of change or challenge can lead to personal and cultural decay [4][5][6]. Whether portraying the dull stagnation of an unvarying soul [7] or critiquing the political and economic reluctance to progress [8][9], the word functions as a potent metaphor for the inherent dangers of unyielding inaction and the absence of dynamic growth.
