Background of the Place

EUROPE

is a continent located entirely in the Northern Hemisphere and mostly in the Eastern
Hemisphere. It is bordered by the Arctic Ocean to the north, the Atlantic Ocean to the west and
the Mediterranean Sea to the south. It comprises the westernmost part of Eurasia.

Since around 1850, Europe is most commonly considered to be separated from Asia by
the watershed divides of the Ural and Caucasus Mountains, the Ural River, the Caspian and
Black Seas and the waterways of the Turkish Straits.Though the term "continent" implies
physical geography, the land border is somewhat arbitrary and has moved since its first
conception in classical antiquity. The division of Eurasia into two continents reflects East-West
cultural, linguistic and ethnic differences, some of which vary on a spectrum rather than with a
sharp dividing line. The border does not follow political boundaries, with Turkey, Russia and
Kazakhstan being transcontinental countries.

What do we talk about when we talk about literature? In the modern parlance, the term is
associated with its academic context, referring to the enduring works of fiction, philosophy,
history, etc. that have been studied for generations and shaped the foundations of our thought.
Yet literature by its definition includes any and all written works, a fact that has never been more
relevant than in our current Internet age, when the written word is more accessible and
democratic than ever before.
