It is a way to be put in the shoes of someone else and walk around in them for the duration of a couple hundred pages, to see the world from a perspective different from any other you have experienced before. It is, for the author, an outlet of creativity and a way of expression unlike any other.

Reading is like observing a painting. Some take the time to notice the little details and try to understand the implicit messages, and some don't. Everyone is free to have their own interpretations and opinions. 
Literature is a way for the reader to enrich their mind by exploring the writer's thoughts and imagination.]]> 2018-09-04 19:53:32 UTC https://padlet.com/mhfasquel/def/wish/277739331 Clara https://padlet.com/mhfasquel/def/wish/277740447 Literature is the art of arranging words and sentences in a way, allowing the reader to be absorbed by the text.]]> 2018-09-04 19:57:32 UTC https://padlet.com/mhfasquel/def/wish/277740447 Marine https://padlet.com/mhfasquel/def/wish/277740779 Literature allows you to escape the reality of life into a dreaming world.

They show their originality through specific content that have different effects on the readers so as to make them feel transported by the story, or make them dream, cry, feel compassion or joy.

"It's fine writing" like said M. Arnold and it's a way of creating an imaginary world, or traveling geographically and/or through time without physically having to do so, like said several people in the class. Sorry if it wasn't clear. ]]> 2018-09-05 16:31:23 UTC https://padlet.com/mhfasquel/def/wish/278069489 Lisa https://padlet.com/mhfasquel/def/wish/278085229 Literature is everything, it is freedom, power and adventure. One cannot simply define literature due to the fact that each individual relates to it differently, there are no rules, just words on paper that speak the author's mind. Words that can transport a reader to another world or life, words that speak the truth and most of all, words that awaken imagination and creativity in a world where most people no longer have the ability to use these qualities. ]]> 2018-09-05 17:01:19 UTC https://padlet.com/mhfasquel/def/wish/278085229 Tara https://padlet.com/mhfasquel/def/wish/278095544 Literature is the representation of our experiences, feelings and imagination, created with our own words and style.

But, literature is defined differently by every human being and that is why it can be appreciated by everyone. Everybody has their own "literature" and that is what makes it accessible to everybody.
