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

1.85K 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?

In order to develop reading compression and critical thinking skills. Anyone can read a passage or story and get the ‘gist’ of it. It takes practice to be able to analyze what you are reading to identify deeper meanings or ways to interpret the writing in relation to real events of the time the fiction was written.
