Literature is an imaginative or creative writing, especially of recognized artistic value. In this article i will like to share my view on this new generation literature student. majority of the student their attention have been shifted from real literary acts to what i call visual genre.
Literature was highly honored and embraced in the past, cos its the sole of entertainment. Many thanks to the great Shuruppak and Urukagina (both live in 27th and 24th century B.C) the earliest literatist (literature author).
Literature was redefined in 15th century by some great writer, poets, actors e.g Miguel De Cervantes (Spain), William Shakespeare (England), Christopher Marlowe (England), Molie (French), Ben Johnson (England), and lots more.

Through their believes in this work of art, lots of great people have rise and rise. Meanwhile literature was highly celebrated in 18th and 19th Century. It is because majority of old and ancient literary works was brought back to life.
William Shakespeare |
And this great people make literature more interesting. But my concern is that 21st century literature generation interest on this great work is low cos their attention have been shifted to visual genres. e.g contemporary musics, sci-fi films, and so on. Am not condemning any field or career, but what i feel is that literature give birth to this new stuff and should not be forgotten so fast.

Literature is the heart of entertainment and real literary work cannot fade that is what make it (The Culture), its natural. "Literature is an immortal culture practiced by mortals". Together we can make it work, if we believe in ourselves, we can surpass those legends and create our own style. Thanks
