Critics continuously debate literature’s chief function. Tracing【S1】______
their arguments towards Plato, many contend that literature’s【S2】______
primary function is moral, its chief value being its usefulness of【S3】______
cultural or societal purposes. But others, like Aristotle, hold that a
work of arts can be analyzed and broken down into its various parts,【S4】______
with a part contributing to the overall enjoyment of the work itself.【S5】______
For these critics, the value of a text is found under the text itself or【S6】______
is inseparably linked to the work itself. In its most simple terms, the
debate centers around two concerns: Is literature’s chief function to
teach or to entertain? In the other words, can we read a text for the【S7】______
just fun of it, or must we always be studying and learning from what【S8】______
we read?
Such questions and their various answers lead us directly to
literary theory, for literary theory concerned itself not only with【S9】______
ontological questions(whether a text really exists), but also with
epistemological issues(how we know or ways of knowing). When
we ask, then, that literature’s chief function is to entertain or to【S10】______
teach, we are really asking epistemological questions. Whether we
read a text to learn from it or to be entertained, we can say that
once we have read a text we "know" that text.
