Literature is a word used to describe written and spoken materials (at times). Originally
from the Latin word litera meaning “letters”, literature most commonly mean works of the
creative imagination. This includes poetry, drama, fiction, non-fiction, and in some occasions,
journalism.
To put it simply, literature symbolizes the culture and tradition of a language or a group
of people. Many have tried to define the concept on precise terms but the accepted definition
of literature has been constantly changing, just like life continuously changes.
For many, the word literature suggests a higher art form; merely putting words on a
page doesn’t necessarily equate to creating literature. A canon is the accepted body of works
for a given author. Some works of literature are considered canonical, that is, culturally
representative of a genre (poetry, prose, or drama).
LITERATURE
The Spider and the Fly
Fable
Mr. Spider wanted to marry Miss Fly. Many times, he told her of his love and begged
her to become his wife, but she always refused, for she did not like him.
One day when she saw Mr. Spider coming again, Miss Fly closed all the doors and
windows of her house and made ready a pot of boiling water. She waited, and when Mr. Spider
called, begging her to allow him to enter, she answered by throwing boiling water at him. This
made Mr. Spider very angry and he cried, “I will never forgive you for this, but I and my
descendants will always despise you. We will never give you any peace.”
Mr. Spider kept his word, and even today one can see the hatred of the spider for the fly.
