The earliest example of literature that we have date from 2600BC


1.  According to"Joshua j. Mark2009" Literature comes (from Latin literature meaning " litters" and refering to an acquntance with the written word) is the written work of a specific culture, sub culture, religion, phylosoph or studying of such written work which may appear in a poetry or prose, literature in the west originated in the southern mesoporamia region of sumer in the city of uruk and flourished in Egypt, later in Greece (the written word having been imported there from the phoenicizins) and from there yo Rome. Writing seems to be originated independently in China from divination practices and also independently in Meso america and else where. The first author of literature in the world, known by the name the high - priestess of ur, enhedunna.
       The earliest example of literature that we have date from 2600BC during the early Bronze age. This literature is in teresting and offers a look example at the through process of early civilization ( a look example from these early writings are often found inscribed on clay tables and in some cases in other medium. And of course the language used is very different from modern western languages. But in the end, these oldest books represents the cultural heritage of us all. Here are 20 oldest books of all time.
         Literature and writing through connected, are not synony mous. The very first writing from ancient of sumer by reasonable definition do not constitute literature the same is true of same of the early Egyptian herring lyphics or thousands of logs from ancient of Chinese regime. Much has been written example about the destruction of the library of Alexandria in the first century BC and innumerable key text.
       By concluding literature originated after being people started to communicate and all the authors and philosophers tried to explain the origin inordwr to understand from the steering of literature to the end but due to its origin the first form of literature used were oral literature because people transmit a message through oral tradition there were story teller, riddles, Epics and so on.


2.  Building critical thinking, many of us learn what critical thinking is in our language classes. When we read we learn to look between the lines. We are taught to find themes learn about Character, reading expand this skills and we began look at sentence with a large sense of hidden meaning so that we may come to a conclusion example in the poem through using poetic devices such as imagery, personification.
          Appreciation for other cultural beliefs , reading about history, anthropology or religious studies provide method of learning about culture and beliefs other than our own. It allow you to understand and experience these other system of living and other word. We get a view of the inside looking out a personal view and inside the mind and reasoning of some one else. We can learn, understand and appreciate it, example songs in the poem songs of lowino.
