When i started my journey of English literature in first year of BA it is alien term for me. But when time passes I learn so many things from literature. Today when I look back in memory of time I realises that I am not the same person I was before entering into this subject. Now I am totally different person from earlier life.
"Keep calm and Love literature"
William Shakespeare and his tragedies all time favourite of me it gives aesthetic delight and at the end because of catharsis purgation of emotion happens and we feel relax and calm. Christopher Marlowe and his work" Doctor Faustus"teaches about exaggeration of knowledge leads towards tragedy of human being"paradise lost" book by John Milton has great influence over my mind for argumentative discourse and critical thinking. Gulliver's travels , Robinson Crusoe and all that bad not known at surface level. Aristotle and Plato both has great influence in my mind as a base of critical thinking and philosophical thought.
To the"lighthouse"by Virginia Woolf provide me once again that "women can paint.women can write". and much better than made can do. her style of writing proves this statement.
Some novels like Arthur Miller's"All my son", Chetan Bhagat's "one indian girl", about feminism and successful Business man. Arvind Adigas's"the white tiger"teaches about real and ugly look of our own society. Sense of an ending by Julian Barnes gives some real life values and ugliness of real world. It has some different point of views compare to real societies like it proves that suicide is better idea than leaving unhappy life.
This all I learn in my life during study of literature for last 3(three) years.
So, How I relate literature with the society? The impact of literature in modern society is undeniable. Literature acts as a form of expression for each individual author. Some books mirror society and allow us to better understand the world we live in.. literature is a reflection of humanity and a way for us to understand each other.
At last recomend of learning literature is students will practice critical thinking and reading skills so that they can devise original idea, rather than simply echo the idea's of others. Students will learn to evaluate the credibility of sources. Use accademic/scholarly resources, effectively and ethically.
So, that is about what is literature and how literature made an impact on me and my vision of understanding of society in a better way. Criticism made me to do think and questions the things which make the critical thinking much in use and because it is important for each and every student of literature to go through this path. After these 3 years of BA I could develop critical thinking as well as the argumentative capability. And understand the real meaning of literature. We just learnt what our professor and teachers taught us.
