Culture





In our generation our knowledge is expanding, our curiosity of the world around grows on us. We yearn to learn more. Instead of being left to wonder, we seek the various myths and stories told and passed down for centuries. These stories tell us how they lived, including the diverse cultures-traditions, marriage, funerals & etc. In which they reflect in their literature. With this said, the stories and traditions help us seek the understanding why they live the way they lived.
Cultures portray what other countries view the world to be through their eyes. Each culture has their God and worship him or her in different ways. Cultures help diversify the world, though still being the children of God. Therefore, in their culture the stories help their generation understand their ancestors, and help us understand and learn what goes on in their culture. Our experience in exploring to find new information, it helps the next generation have vast amount of information. Contemporary World Literature enables us to expand the knowledge we have. Such as, teaching the children of tomorrow what we know, so we all can be one. For example, we unite together as one with our diversified food selections, which is not only delicious, but shows what type of resources they have to make as food.
Literature has helped us in many ways than just one. Not only does culture portray other countries, but it also reveals who we are, and where we all came from to form into one, diversified world.
