To say whether we have a need for World Literature in today's society, first I would need to give a Definition of the term, something I had to actually look up myself. To sum up the definition that I Received from Wikipedia for World Literature would be the art of written work, literature can come from a specific time, genre, historical periods, political movements, gender, race, and/or nationality. World Literature gives us an insight on times that have passed or things that are happening or are going to happen in the world. World Lit is important because without the written content of the world everything could be hear-say, personal experience, storytelling, or television. World Literature gives a voice to all to express their opinion, experience, truths, lies, imaginations, and dreams, reality and information. Literature paints a worded picture of places and times that some would not be able to experience without the Literature.
