I was lucky to have fantastic teachers in high school who exposed me to the works of Shakespeare, Mark Twain, Edgar Allen Poe, and many other authors. I have always enjoyed literature, but I have always had trouble understanding literature in different aspects. For example, I had to write a literary analysis on Shakespeare's Julius Caesar. and I remember reading the passages over and over again and not understanding a word I was reading. Literature is something that is very relative to the person reading the text, and different people view literature in different contexts and aspects. I have not really enjoyed any literary analysis assignments, but I finally think that I am mature enough to understand these difficult works of literature. I have always found literature that is written in old English very hard to understand. I have always used resources like Sparknotes to get a better understanding of the text. I’ve always seemed to like American literature. My favorite piece of literature is “To Kill a Mocking Bird.” Many directors use pieces of literature to make renditions or new versions of literary stories. Many directors look to Shakespeare for influence for movies. Literature shows how certain people lived in certain eras, and I think that it is important to study literature in order to be more well aware of what times were like in different periods of time. I also think that literature helps people understand different times of trouble, and that transcends into modern day literature and music.
