LITERATURE

As I began to reflect on this subject, a number of


realizations happened to me, possibly because this subject is
somewhat perplexing to me because I dislike reading works of
literature. Throughout the quarter, I was filled with unexpected
insights and new ideas. Writing reflective journals is useful to me
because it allows me to express my thoughts and experiences about
the subject. Aside from that, this is the time when I can identify the
topics in which I excel and those in which I struggle to concentrate
and learn. . Among the five different topics we've discussed, the last
one piqued my interest the most because I had no idea how
important it is to critique, especially when discussing literature,
until we discussed this lesson. I realized that in order to understand
a text, we must first understand its context. Understanding the
context of a particular work of literature can aid us in broadening
our knowledge. Aside from that, this may help us understand the
message that the text was trying to convey. As I recall from our
discussion, the text and context are both dependent on one another,
which is why this is also an important component when we are
about to critique a piece of literature. I believe that excellence is
highlighted in this topic because without excellence, I will not be
able to critique literature or understand a piece. I realized that
learning this would be beneficial to me because it can be applied in
real life, especially when we are assigned to critique a piece of
work. In general, excellence is the value that we must adapt in
order to excel and comprehend such things.
