Literary authors often use the word unconcerned to portray characters or settings that mask inner emotions with a façade of calm detachment. In some works, a character’s seemingly indifferent exterior belies an undercurrent of internal conflict, as when one strives to appear nonchalant despite palpable discomfort [1] or even masks deeper worries behind a cool demeanor [2]. At other times, unconcerned is employed to suggest that a person or even nature itself maintains a steady, almost automatic composure in the face of dramatic events, as when a vessel journeys through ruins without haste [3] or when a pony ambles along in quiet passivity [4]. This nuanced use of the term adds layers to both character development and atmospheric description throughout literature [5][6][7].
