WHAT IS LITERATURE? - ARTHUR GIBSON KARTONIERT ...

The answer to the question 'what is literature?' has not been found. This is the first
book-length attempt to find the answer  by one author  since Sartre in his 1948 book with the
same title. The book addresses issues such as: how does literature speak to the world  what is
great writing  what is originality  what sorts of truths are there  if any  in creative
writing? The book uses hundreds of literary examples  and confronts them with philosophy. The
book also explores some big questions about the meaning of life  and sets them against a range
of literature. It asks questions like: how does great science relate to literature? The book
advances the concept of counter-intuition  as part of the basis for answering the question
'what is literature?' The book is also concerned with practical matters  such as the ways
literature is involved with war  corruption  rights  suffering and hope.
