Literary inquisition

Literary inquisition refers to the critical examination and evaluation of literary works, often with a focus on moral, ideological, or social implications. It involves questioning the content, themes, and contexts of literature, akin to a thorough interrogation of ideas and values expressed in texts. This process can be formal, such as literature reviews or academic critiques, or informal, like discussions among readers. The goal is to foster deeper understanding and provoke thought about the messages conveyed in literature, encouraging readers to critically engage with what they read.
