Literary Profile

In constructing a literary profile, I consider my earliest recollection of literature. The Cat In The Hat written by Dr. Seuss, as I recall, was one of the first books I had read to me and in return learned to read. I remember children stumbling over not only the rhymes schemes but also over pronouncing the syllables and carrying out each phrase. I also remember one rainy day after reading the book, wishing that the cat in the hat would come and rescue my siblings and I from the woes rainy day boredom.
Since then I have come to learn not only pronounce and annunciate, but to enjoy the escape that literature brings. My most recent recollections of literature include the novel we chose to read in conjunction with the research paper we had to write for ENC 1102. I chose The Sound And The Fury by William Faulkner. It is by far one of the most significant texts I have read lately. It was one of the most thorough books I have ever read. It included the account from a “stream of conscience” writing mentally challenged boy, an estranged and miserly man, and a suicidal man.
To me, literature matters from the aspect of expression. Without writing anything down, or collecting our thoughts together, how would we express anything to others? Expression could portray caution, emotion, importance, beauty, and many other things. For instance, God chose to express His revelation of Himself through literature. How else would God be able to accurately and solidly show this? Even God realized how important literature.
Although Literature matters in most cases, there are the occasional cases where it does not matter. If you were to travel to somewhere where literature, or any paper good could not follow, it would not matter. It would be the amount of material you retained or memorization that would matter more than the actual material.
