Literature as a form of art


There are two types of knowledge of reality: scientific and artistic. Scientific – a reliable picture, an objective existence, the identification of laws governing the world, concepts are formulated. Science claims to be objective, accurate, correct.

The artistic type of knowledge is kindness, beauty, truth.

Artistic perception is always purely personal. It is always individual and exclusive, never pretend to be final.
