literature, a body of written works. The name has traditionally been applied to those imaginative works of poetry and prose distinguished by the intentions of their authors and the perceived aesthetic excellence of their execution.

Answer:

Literature acts as a form of expression for each individual author. Some books mirror society and allow us to better understand the world we live in. ... We are easily connected to the psyche of authors through their stories. However, literature also reiterates the need to understand modern day issues like human conflict.
