Literature contains more information and more in-depth concepts than any other form of media, mostly due to its structure. An author's ability to put the reader inside the mind of a character and provide their inner thoughts and feelings can help them understand what it's like to have different life experiences, morals, and values than the ones they currently hold in real life. There is no other way to take a person out of their own biased perspective and put them into someone else's mindset. Literature gives readers new understanding of human differences or new outlooks on life that they might not have ever discovered on their own. This makes the written word incredibly powerful, since one text can change the minds of millions. The facts contained in nonfiction works expand a different kind of knowledge, one that helps us make logical decisions instead of emotional ones. Having increased awareness of the world and the people around you leads to informed, intelligent decisions and a conscious effort to treat others with respect. Oceania's Newspeak language is designed to combat the expression of new ideas, eliminating literature's most important function. I found this interesting so I wrote down details about its structure from the video.

What we read allows a to create new thoughts and expressions that allow us to make new ideas. Without the opinions we make up due to the reading we wouldn't have anything to communicate, express ourselves, and have the basic knowledge of the world. We need to have complex language to find new ways to explore the world without living in a neutral and controlled life.

Reading literature teaches you new words and how to use them. You use words for all communication and even think using the language that you speak. Without language, you can't communicate with yourself or organize your thoughts, which is the basis of all advancements. We have learned that there are multiple categories of vocabulary, things such as blunt definitions, compound words that are blends of nouns and verbs, or specific jargon that only certain people can comprehend.
