In my opinion, literature it’s a form of expression, of escaping from the reality. It’s another
world that permit us, to take refuge or identify with the characters you like most, their
stories of love, friendship, and mystery.

It’s to live another kind of life while reading the pages of the book, because it allows us to
create those fantasy stories and feel them as real. Literature is an instruction or set of
knowledge or skills to write and read well, and related to art, one of the most beautiful and
practical of humanity.

It’s like an artistic expression that’s based on the use of language. Literature it’s found in
what is sung or spoken, finding in it, that mystery so beautiful that it hides behind what is
written, and also behind on the letters, too. It’s feeling, and being able to free, and express
oneself when reading or writing about something that we are passionate, and makes us feel
connected.

For [ CITATION Rol \l 3082 ], Literature is not a set of works or a category, but rather the
practice of writing. Wolfgang Kayser planned, in the mid-20th century, to make a change to
the term literature, using "belles letters" instead so that the written text could be
differentiated from speech.

There are three main classifications and each one has sub-genres:

Lyrical genre: Developed by writers such as Federico García Lorca. These are, texts to
which a certain rhythm is assigned, thus including, among others, the hymn, the ode, the
eclogue, the satire, etc.
Epic or narrative genre: In which Miguel de Cervantes is located, which aims to tell an
untrue story. Within this genre we have the epic, the songs of deed, the short story and the
novel.

Dramatic genre: which is a text whose purpose is to act, can be tragedy, comedy, etc. A
writer of this literary genre is Pedro Calderón de la Barca.

Following that same previous line, exists genre of “drama”, and this is my favorite,
because drama is a literary genre characterized by the representation of conflicting human
actions, and situations, which has been conceived for its staging, be it theatrical, television
or cinematographic. Dramas represent some episode or conflict in the lives of their
characters. As such, drama doesn’t relate, but represents, and stages an action or situation in
which a story is woven.

For that reason, my favorite book it’s a drama book. “Youth in ecstasy”, by “Carlos
Cuauhtémoc Sánchez”.

I really like this genre, because I can feel connected or identified with the

emotions of those who interpret the characters, and for me that is the most important thing

when reading or watching a movie, feeling strong emotions that generate suspense and

reflections to use that in my daily life. This book is my favorite, Because I think that

whoever reads this book has in their hands one of the most important books of all time. A

unique work that must be read by couples, parents, young people, teachers, etc.

Through a captivating novel, he clearly explains how to base a constructive love

relationship, and proposes a modern vision of premarital sex that preserves fundamental

values.” Youth in ecstasy”, faces the issue of dating and the election of couples directly and

currently providing young people with weapons to make the best decisions.
In conclusion, I think that literature should influence of the people, because thanks to it we
can escape for a while from reality, and not only that, but it’s also helps us to be more
educated, wiser, and more creative in capturing those emotions generated by art, reading,
and especially literature, since this must be a factor that it’s too important in society to
allow all people who may not feel connected to something, literature offers not only
entertainment for the reader, but knowledge and learning.
