Literature in Human Life by EMKPSW


Literature in Human Life

Feelings of eagerness filled my mind as I was listening to my lecturer on our last Prose Class. Moreover, it was related with the topic about literature that I had listened at Salihara Theatre. Consequently, it makes me more stable in my decision to choose literature as my major.

During our last Prose Class, my lecturer explained about what the meaning of literature is and what interpretation is. Actually, I was little bit sleepy during the class because I have got flu. However, I still tried to concentrate at the explanation of my lecturer. Then, I started to ask myself why I chose to understand this hard subject (literature) which is really abstract even when I did not know the advantages of learning it. Somehow, it takes me to the reality where many people can’t respect their lives as grace for they cannot ‘read’ life. Therefore, by learning literature and having interaction with text(s), readers like me can get many advantages such as the values of life for respecting the grace that God has given in my life. In brief, the meaning of literature is as a place where the writer share his (her) ideas about life to the readers who then can relate the text(s) with the real world in their lives.

Furthermore, I remember about my experience when I was visiting Salihara Theater which was really interesting for me during listened to the explanation. The topic of discussion was about ‘Erotic in The Bible’ presented by an expert in theology. Then, what made me interested was the way the expert spoke and presented the lecture. For me, it helps me a lot to recognize literature, in this case, literature in Holy Bible. Besides, she also brought the audience into a comprehension that when reading the works of literature, reader(s) should let the books or texts ‘talk’ to him (her) so the ‘conversation’ between the books (texts) and the reader will happen. Then, in Prose Class, it was also reminded by my lecture. In conclusion, I really enjoyed the seminar because it improved my knowledge about literature and developed my eagerness to learn more and more.

Therefore, both theProse Class and the seminar held in Salihara Theatre have helped me to relate the lesson of literature in my life and filled me with new spirit. In brief, it supplies me the beauty of literature in human life.
