Blog Post #1: What is Literature?

  1. The most important aspect of this chapter I’ve gathered after reading the first 10 pages is that there are many ways to interpret what literature actually is, and how it is hard to define it. The author makes it clear that there are multiple interpretations and opinions on what literature can be and what counts as such. I believe the reason why the author brings this up is because he wants us to try and challenge our current views on literature and non literature so that we can gain a better understanding of the chapter overall.
  2. Why does the author separate literature and non literature when it is all up to interpretation?
