In literature, 'barring' is used to describe situations where a character is prevented from doing something. For instance, in Shakespeare's 'Julius Caesar', Brutus says, 'Who is here for my lord?' (3.1.115). If no one responds, he declares, 'Then am I content: I could have plucked my lord out of the grave and had him in my bosom, if his head had rested on my bosom.' (3.1.119-120). Brutus is barred from expressing his love for Caesar, and this act of exclusion ultimately leads to the assassination.
