Based on the context used, the connotation of the word "revel" is:

  • Positive.

<h3>Connotative Meaning </h3>

This refers to the implied meaning of a word and in a literal sense has to do with the meaning of a word based on its context.

With this in mind, we can see that the speaker is talking about focusing solely on his work and leave nothing unexamined which would help him to revel away in feasts of literature.

Natalka [10]
It is ironic that Confucius's son died an early death. We can infer that the death of Confucius' son, Carp is ironic, he suffered an early death when the symbolism of the carp fish is longevity, because carps can get very old, it also represents the dragons due to big scales on the body of a carp. According to the meaning of the carp Confucius' son, Carp, should have a long live which did not happen.
