Literature and Conflict

Literature is the collection of written works like novels, poems, and plays that express human thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Conflict in literature refers to the struggles or challenges characters face, which drive the story forward. It can be internal (within a character’s mind) or external (between characters, society, or nature). Conflict creates tension and interest, allowing readers to explore different perspectives and understand complex situations. Together, literature and conflict reveal themes about human nature, morality, and society, helping us better understand ourselves and the world around us.
