Abstract
In a world riddled with immorality, animosity and cruelty, the study of literature can help readers cultivate and
strengthen moral values. The proposed paper will argue that reading literary works can not only foster
character development, but it can also imbue the reader with humane values. It can bring about positive change
in an individual and in society. Indeed, through literature, people learn how to effectively relate socially with
others in the global community.
