The term "submarine" in literature has been used in a remarkably diverse way, ranging from strictly scientific descriptions to pivotal narrative elements that evoke mystery and adventure. For instance, Darwin uses the term in a naturalistic context to describe a shallow underwater bank inhabited by various creatures [1], while Jules Verne transforms it into a symbol of marvel and exploration throughout his works, referring to everything from the "Great Submarine Grounds" [2] to intricate features like underwater forests [3] and volcanic eruptions [4]. Moreover, the term extends beyond mere physical descriptions; in Verne’s narrative, it encapsulates the technological prowess and enigmatic nature of vehicles like the Nautilus, underscoring the shift in human interaction with the aquatic world [5, 6, 7]. Even outside Verne’s prolific usage, authors such as Thomas Carlyle and Bernard Shaw employ "submarine" to invoke images of both natural proportions and modern mechanization [8, 9]. Taken together, these examples illustrate how "submarine" functions simultaneously as a term rooted in scientific observation and as a metonym for the wonders and perils of the underwater realm.
