OVERVIEW. Literature is a term used to describe written and sometimes


spoken material. Derived from the Latin word literature meaning "writing
formed with letters," literature most commonly refers to works of the
creative imagination, including poetry, drama, fiction, nonfiction, and in
some instances, journalism, and song.
American literature is very important for the education of people as it
reveals the culture and history of the United States. Moreover, American
literature studying in other countries gives foreigners the opportunity to get
to know American culture, history, and great works of the great authors
better.
By the first decades of the 19th century, a truly American literature began to
emerge. Though still derived from British literary tradition, the short stories
and novels published from 1800 through the 1820s began to depict
American society and explore the American landscape in an unprecedented
manner.

Freedom : the state of being free or at liberty rather than in confinement or


under physical restraint
Freedom of association
Freedom of belief
Freedom of speech
Freedom to express oneself
Freedom of the press
Freedom to choose one's state in life
Freedom of religion
Freedom of bondage and slavery
Freedom to bear arms
However, the civil constitutions of each country have different definitions of the
freedoms allowed to the citizens. It has been argued that any law limits freedom,
since it sets limits on what people may do.

Vocabulary: Vocabulary is commonly defined as "all the words known and


used by a particular person".
Each type has a different purpose and, luckily, vocabulary development in
one type facilitates growth in another.

GRAMMAR AND WRITING

"Grammar is the structural foundation of our ability to express ourselves. The more we are
aware of how it works, the more we can monitor the meaning and effectiveness of the way we
and others use language.
"Grammar is important because it is the language that makes it possible for us to talk about
language. Grammar names the types of words and word groups that make up sentences not
only in English but in any language. As human beings, we can put sentences together even as
children—we can all do grammar. But to be able to talk about how sentences are built, about
the types of words and word groups that make up sentences—that is knowing about
grammar. And knowing about grammar offers a window into the human mind and into our
amazingly complex mental capacity."

"People associate grammar with errors and correctness. But knowing about grammar also
helps us understand what makes sentences and paragraphs clear and interesting and
precise. Grammar can be part of literature discussi in poetry and stories. And knowing about
grammar means finding out that all languages and all dialects follow grammatical patterns."

Writing: REVIEW

"Writing" is the process of using symbols (letters of the alphabet, punctuation and spaces) to
communicate thoughts and ideas in a readable form. "Writing" can also refer to the
work/career of an author, as in: "Shakespeare didn't make much money from writing."
