Literature, besides being an art form used for expression, also preserves cultural ideals, customs, and morals. The written word gives us a deeper context into the lives and livelihood of people distinct from ourselves – this can be true of historical literature but is equally true of modern literature, as well. We can learn as much from William Shakespeare's time through his plays as we can from authors from a different mindset or place.

Besides this detailed and nuanced window into another person's or people's world, literature also challenges the reader to profoundly ponder the art form itself. Through metaphor, allusions, themes, foreshadowing and other literary devices, the reader has the opportunity to analyze a work beyond the written words.

Literature is a way for man to express his thoughts, beliefs and ideas. It is an
excellent way to educate the masses and is also a great way to escape from
ordinary life. The study of literature helps the learners improve in their grammar
and spelling, and also help them understand different cultures better.
