Literature and communities

Literature and communitiesLiterature croupe help people to pop a real in astuteness view of vivification through and through someone elses shoes. You send word almost get lost into another world while reading a book. No matter if that world is fiction or non-fiction, it rear take the subscriber to an unfamiliar place and make them live comfortable in that space. A person mess take something a panache from what they concord read in some ground level of lit and put it to use into their communities. Something as truthful as a feeling, viewpoint, or flat a new perspective, buttocks bring a new knowledge on the whole sentinel of something. Literature can help to add culture to a readers life. Any beat a person adds culture to their life, they would engage a positive affect on our society because they have been enriched with publications. Everyone has different points of view that they wish to express in life, regardless of the theme. Everyone also has different opinions a s with literature. Each individual that reads a poem or a story is affected by it differently. However, the crude ground for literature and the community and every person that reads it is this we all must(prenominal) st device at the beginning before we get to the last summon or subscriber line from a poem.Every community has been affected by literature since the beginning of time. At first, legion(predicate) people did not have the pleasures of being able to read and write and at that placefore could not pry literature. But once they were taught how to read, interests in reading became popular through some communities. Communities ar affected by historical stories, autobiographies, fiction, non-fiction, and even poetry told by authors. It is somewhat like a domino effect that has been happening for earthly concerny years and it will continue to grow and affect those in the future.The readings from this pasts workweek even show how communities are affected by literature. My first prototype is in the The Prodigal Son by Luke, (cited in DiYanni, 2007, page 27) is both sons and their beginner. One son works by his sires side without complaining. The other son, however, asks for his hereditary pattern as soon as he is old enough to express with his breed about it. The father in this story does as per his sons asking and sells his half of the land and gives the money to his son. That son wastefully spends all of his hazard and loses all of his friends when the money is gone. He ends up homeless and becomes very frightening until he realizes that he will go home and ask his father to become one of his servants. The servants were not as poor and desperate as he was becoming. Naturally his father was so delighted by having his son come home that he holds a feast in follow of the son returning. Then the other son complains to his father about being loyal while the other son did not remain loyal. The father answers his sons complaint with a great explanation son thou art ever with me and all that I have is thinefor this thy brother was dead and is active again and was lost and is now found (cited in DiYanni, 2007, page 28). The father was simply saying that what is his is theirs and he was thankful that his son learned his life lesson.This story affects the community because it gives people a sense of hope when in that respect is despair. Even when people can bring on their own problems by selfish acts, faith, hope, and love can help people get through the toughest of times. I feel that this story has a very prominent rive of the religious community. A person can still receive lenience in spite of the fact of the thing they may have do wrong. I most certainly can relate to this story because I have know that I have hurt my mother time and time again, but no matter how big and ridiculous my mistakes have been, she is always there to help and guide me. That is why I feel that if I am impacted by this story that my communit y is also. other story from this weeks readings showing the relationship of how the community is affected by literature is AP by John Updike (cited in DiYanni, 2007, page 32). This story is about a young man that is employed by the same supermarket chain as in the title. He tries to suffer for three girls in hopes that they will invoice him but they do not exactly give him the time of day. thither are these three girls that go shopping in the gillyflower, but they are wearing nothing but bikinis. Being that they are inappropriately dressed, the store manager asks them to come into the store having their shoulders covered next time. The young man ends up quitting his job in the hopes of catching the girls attention. I believe that he wanted to be viewed as the hero for standing up for them even though, the girls were in the wrong for coming into a store dressed that way in the first place (cited in DiYanni, 2007, 36). This story affects the community because there can be different ways that this sort of story can be viewed, and we could all learn from this sort of storyline.A person can take something away from what they have read in some form of literature and put it to use into their communities for the future. That something can be as guileless as a feeling, viewpoint, or even a new perspective, that can bring a new knowledge on the whole prognosis of something. A person with culture added to their life, has a positive affect on our society because they have been enriched with literature. Each individual that reads a poem or a story is affected by it differently. However, the common ground for literature and the community and every person that reads it is this we all must start at the beginning before we get to the last page or line from a poem. This knowledge is something that stays with a person forever not only here, but in every community.ReferencesDi Yanni, R. (2007). Literature reading fiction, poetry, and drama.
