Why we need to read fiction books in school and analyze them?

1.83K viewsOther

A lot of people read as a hobby and that is completely easy to understand.

But at least in my country we need to read fiction books in school and analyse them.

It’s important to know that I am talking about fiction, not about history or math books. I am talking about Shakespeare and those fiction writers.

As an example, we need to explain the meaning of verses in poems and we need to understand what is the meaning behind books.

Why we need to do this? Is the necessary nowadays?

If you don’t like reading, try watching ‘Starship Troopers’. After watching it, are you cheering along with the humans? You just classified as a fascist and failed your literature class.

This is what reading a book of fiction and analyze them tries to teach you: what you see or read might have a deeper meaning or a strong bias, trying to influence you. It’s important that you recognize that and be able to respond to it.
