Literature is the study of human nature. We see human nature through tragedy and romance, joy and sorrow, in epiphanies and denial, in moments of heroism and moments of cowardice. Literature teaches us to analyse character, allow us to reach inside his/her mind to see what shapes his/her beliefs and how one relate to other. Those who understand literature can learn from it, the most about the thought of the period, in literature the spirit of age gains embodiment and shape and the man of truly sensitive perception can deduce the whole intellectual life of a period. Literature is the thought provoking, it allow us to raise question and give us a deeper understand of issues and situation. Literature allow its reader to grasp the meaning of human conflict. In a era of modern media, people are misled in to think that every question or problem has its quick answer or solution. Literature confirms the real complexity of human experience.
Literature is a form of art, it is capable of bringing about different emotions and general sense of "spiritual wellbeing". Studying literature can be an eye-opening experience. Though literature is taught in schools, this topic could be learned online. Courses begin with a general survey then get more specific with studies on author and works from various literary periods. There are many online sources that not only have works available, but also have study guides or informative essays that can help understand literature.
The function of literature related to the complexity of nature, including that explain its humanizing role, the literature developed in us the share of humanity to the extent that makes us more understanding and open to our fellows, is when we do know feelings and society and take a position about them. In this is we thought when it comes the reality of human rights, starting from a social analysis and seeks to rectify its inequities. In Brazil, the literature engaged in a task linked to human rights was clear in moments of the naturalism, but gained real force in the decade of 1930, this was due to the fact that the social novel passed from simple rhetoric complaint or mere description to a kind of corrosive critical. The fight for human rights covers the struggle for a state of things in which everyone should have access to culture. A fair society presupposes respect to human rights and fruition of art and literature in all types and all levels, both are inalienable rights.
