Literature is works written in written form, such as poetry, prose fiction, drama, and other literary works. Literature is the creative expression of writers who use language and literary style to describe and convey ideas, emotions and human experiences. Literary works often contain deeper meanings and invite readers to contemplate, feel, and consider various aspects of life.

Apart from being an art form, literature also has important historical and cultural values. Through literature, we can study history, cultural values, and people's lives in the past. Literature can also be a social mirror that reflects reality and changes in society.
