REFLECTING ON LITERATURE AND LANGUAGE

The use of the language is different between literary texts and non-literary texts. The literary text  uses language that is not used everyday. In the literary texts, words are used in their etymological sense. Literature is not connected with the writer's. A literary text has a life on his own.

Literature language is full of energy and it makes impression on listeners. Literature is not plane. Literary texts  have become Classic; classic text always tells new things to new generation. It transforms the vision of the world we have. Art transforms culture. Culture is made of a cross of codes, so the main point of literary texts is "to transform". Artists were considered dangerous by the dictators imposing their way and language.
