👉🏻👉🏻✍🏿Literature is important in everyday life because it connects individuals with larger truths and ideas in a society. Literature creates a way for people to record their thoughts and experiences in a way that is accessible to others, through fictionalized accounts of the experience.

👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻✍🏿Benefits of Literature. Literature is an important component of a total language arts program at all grade levels because of the many benefits it offers. Here are some reasons for integrating literature into your curriculum. Literature provides pleasure to listeners and readers.

In A Defense of Poetry, P.B. Shelley wrote,

“A man, to be greatly good, must imagine intensely and comprehensively; he must put himself in the place of another and of many others; the pains and pleasures of his species must become his own. The great instrument of moral good is the imagination.”

Literature teaches us how to live. Literature makes the reader visit places, experience events, meet people, listen to them, feel their joys and sufferings. It takes years to acquire so much wisdom that a single book of literary merit instills in a reader. Literature mirrors the society and its mannerisms. Because of Charles Dickens you can experience the Hard Times of the Victorian England without going through a detailed historical study. The fact-based education system, the fractured human relationships, the smokey polluted towns, the ill-effects of Industrial Revolution, the misery of labourers, the mercenary instincts of men and the flawed legal system of the land....this single book will give you an entire picture of the evils of Victorian English Society. Wordsworth's poetry makes you feel his aesthetic delight at the sight of Daffodils and the tranquility of the song sung by a Solitary Reaper. Similarly, Eliot makes you pity the spiritual barrenness of the world that has turned into Wasteland. Wilfred Owen forces you to think about the Insensibility of the state and people who glorify wars. Literature is a storehouse of all knowledge and wisdom. History, Political Studies, Philosophy, Science and all other forms of learning are part of literature, as Wordsworth puts it:

Poetry (and all literature by extension) is the breath and finer spirit of all knowledge…the poet binds together by passion and knowledge the vast empire of human society, as it is spread over the whole earth, and over all time.”

What is Art by the great Leo Tolstoy explains the importance of all art to human society. Here is a critical excerpt:

As, thanks to man's capacity to express thoughts by words, every man may know all that has been done for him in the realms of thought by all humanity before his day, and can in the present, thanks to this capacity to understand the thoughts of others, become a sharer in their activity and can himself hand on to his contemporaries and descendants the thoughts he has assimilated from others, as well as those which have arisen within himself; so, thanks to man's capacity to be infected with the feelings of others by means of art, all that is being lived through by his contemporaries is accessible to him, as well as the feelings experienced by men thousands of years ago, and he has also the possibility of transmitting his own feelings to others.

If people lacked this capacity to receive the thoughts conceived by the men who preceded them and to pass on to others their own thoughts, men would be like wild beasts.

👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻✍🏿Studying human condition is not enough. One has to feel that condition in order to gain wisdom. Literature provides for a richer life. No other form of learning brings the enrichment that reading brings. Literature is the torch-bearer that has helped civilizations to overcome the darkness of savagery. In the absence of the great Ramayana, Mahabharata and the Vedas India would not have been called the Golden Bird (Sone ki chidiya). Similarly, what makes Greece the mother of European civilization is it's great literature.

So, in the words of Tolstoy, without literature men would be like wild beasts because it endows an understanding, an empathy in the reader, even for someone who is much separated to him by time and distance. Literature unites mankind...
