It argues that literature is an inward pursuit of truth, beauty, and fullness of life that both analyzes and guides social life. The article links literary impact to literacy and mass participation, notes limits of elite readership, and stresses the role of English as a link language for national integration. It also critiques how media can become political tools rather than public service.",{"@graph":14,"@context":72},[15,34,55],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/literature/","Literature",3,{"item":32,"name":10,"@type":21,"position":33},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/the-south-india-churchman-june-1987/421271/",4,{"url":32,"name":10,"@type":35,"image":36,"author":41,"headline":10,"publisher":44,"fileFormat":47,"inLanguage":8,"description":12,"dateModified":48,"datePublished":49,"encodingFormat":47,"isAccessibleForFree":50,"interactionStatistic":51},"DigitalDocument",{"url":37,"@type":38,"width":39,"height":40},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/the-south-india-churchman-june-1987/421271.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":42,"@type":43},"Mabel","Person",{"url":19,"name":45,"@type":46},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-11-03","2026-09-28",true,{"@type":52,"interactionType":53,"userInteractionCount":30},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":54},"ViewAction",{"@type":56,"mainEntity":57},"FAQPage",[58,64,68],{"name":59,"@type":60,"acceptedAnswer":61},"What

both literatureand society play a prominent part in shapingeach other.Society provides material for litera-ture and literature formed out of this materialtries to reform and revitalize the society.Thusliterature not only analyses society but occasion-ally provides guidance and puts society on theright path.  \nLiterature is not a thing;not an article nor abook.It is essentially a pursuit,a pursuit under-taken by the human spirit,a pursuit of truthand beauty and fullness of life.In every humancommunity,no matter how primitive or prehis-toric,there is a longing for beauty and truth andsearch for eternal values even though it may notgo much further than a folk song or a folk taleor a proverb handed down from generation togeneration.It has to be pursued with all theresources of the human spirit—with imaginationand intuition,with ","cbCaiaIv6HiH1NoT","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiaIv6HiH1NoT","pdf",5585922,"English","# Literature and Society\n## Revitalizing literature and
