Literature is defined as anything printed that relates to people's ideas and feelings, whether based in truth or imagination. Literature is important for personal development by allowing people to observe and reflect on others' beliefs and ideas in order to mold their own development. There is a connection between literature and history, as literature is produced by people within a historical context and captures ideas of its time, so literature is a part of the broader concept of history.
