INTRODUCING LANGUAGE THROUGH LITERATURE

In recent years, the role of literature as a basic component and source of authentic texts of the language curriculum rather than an ultimate aim of English instruction has been gaining momentum. Among language educators, there has been a hot discussion, on however, when, where, and why literature ought to be incorporated in ESL / EFL programs. Vigorous discussion of however literature and ESL / EFL instruction will work along and move for the good thing about students and academics has caused the flourishing of attention-grabbing ideas, learning, and improved instruction for all. Many academicians take into account the employment of literature in teaching as a motivating and worthy concern (Sage 1987:1).
