How is a contribution of literature to human being?
Literature is not a book giving a story to human. But literature is a life of people. If there is no literature in this world, human may not be happy like this day. We sometimes think that literature is not important. It does not give anything to the world. It just gives some story and tells what is happening on characters orderly. Indeed, literature contributes to human being in various ways. First of all, literature makes human happy. This is common reason how is it important. Namely, literature like music lyrics, poems, drama, short story or novel creates happiness on human life. We can read novel book after we have leant to take relaxation. When we are bored, we can listen to music. Thus, literature has emotional effect on human beings. Second, literature reflects human life. For example, we read short story named “Tang-Cha-Na” of Chart-Kob-kit-ti. We can see way of life of the characters. And, it exacts with real life of human. In story, human have to overcome poor life. And, they try to do every way in order to feed themselves. Or, if we read “See-PadDin”, we can see changing of each period. For example, way of eating, dressing, speaking, acting, and so on. All of these are reflected by literature, and it contributes to human being. Third, literature is able to motivate human or give some moral to human. For example, we read a Aesop story like the rabbit and the turtle. We can get moral that if we try to do something, we have to reach it. So that, we can use this moral to apply with life. For example, when we are downhearted to work or study, but we think of this moral. It can motivate us to get up and do it over. Thus, this can point that literature contributes to human being in term of motivation and giving moral for their life. Thus, all reasons can show that how a contribution of literature to human being is that literature makes human happy, literature reflects human life, and literature motivates human to do something. So we can’t refuse that nowadays we are closed with literature.
