    neither masturbatory stimuli nor moral lesson; it is an intellectual aphrodisiac. H.H.’s florid language should shock the reader much more than his legal –affairs-. Nabokov had a sense of this; with eleven novels, remarkable translations to and from English, and several poems and short stories, the fairly ripped Russian polyglot was nothing of a noob.

    Why is it important to study literature? I can think of many reasons to answer that question. What it comes down to is a bridge between two unalike ideas or things. Or maybe they are alike, yet they have no means of connection. When two people stand on opposite sides of the world, they are different, but they are brought together by a love and an appreciation for written words in whatever form they may be. The emotions contained in the imagery and flow of the sentences or phrases all describe…

    fiction should be removed from the curriculum of all English classes, that is a not a good choice because making a curriculum is very difficult and lengthy.
