There is a category of people who say that literature has outlived its usefulness as an art form, it has been replaced by cinema and television. But there remains a category of people who recognize and appreciate the importance of literature in our lives.

From generation to generation it is with the help of books passed experience gained over the centuries, books stored knowledge, imprinted the discoveries. Books were a rostrum for the proclamation of new ideas and worldviews. In difficult situations, people turn to books and draw wisdom, strength and inspiration from them. After all, a book is universal, in which a person can find an answer to any question of interest.
Realizing its aesthetic function, literature teaches beauty, kindness, and shapes moral principles. Books form not only moral ideals, but also ideals of appearance and behavior. The heroines and heroes of books become role models. Their images and thoughts are taken as a basis for their own behavior. Therefore, it is so important, during the formation of the person to refer to the right books, which will give the right guidelines.
For example, the images of the most beautiful heroines are the embodiment of femininity, tenderness and natural beauty.

Thus, the role of literature at all times and in modern times is to help man to comprehend himself and the world around him, to awaken in him a desire for truth and happiness, to teach respect for the past, for knowledge and for the principles of morality handed down from generation to generation. Whether or not to take advantage of the opportunity offered by books is a personal choice for each individual.
