Regional Vernacular Literature

Regional vernacular literature refers to literary works created in the everyday language spoken by a specific group or region, as opposed to a national or classical language. This type of literature captures the culture, traditions, and experiences of local communities, making it accessible and relatable to the people living there. It includes poetry, stories, and plays that reflect regional identities. By using local dialects and themes, regional vernacular literature helps preserve unique voices and fosters a sense of belonging, while also enriching the wider literary landscape by showcasing diverse perspectives and experiences.
