Today’s Video: What Is Literature For?

In this week’s video the School of Life asks the big question, “What Is Literature For?” It opens the discussion of why people spend time reading novels and poems when bigger events are happening in the world. The video goes on to explain why reading literature is so important such as learning from history, acting as a cure for loneliness, and how it allows you to learn from other mistakes.

I found this video to be really interesting and it even opened my mind to new ways that literature is not only essential to the world, but to each individual.

Have a great weekend and happy reading!🙂
