Learn how to write a review of literature

Many students at a certain stage of their studies face a literature review.  Creating a literature review can be part of the assignments of graduate students. It is especially true when they prepare a dissertation or journal article. Literature reviews are also used in a research proposal or prospectus (a document that is written before a student formally begins writing a dissertation).  Many students may be tempted to save time by limiting their review to the last decade, but it is no time for failure.

The 16 Most Phenomenal Science Fiction Books Ever Written

Science has been around for ages as a subject, but in reality, it is what makes us and our world, even before we started studying it officially. Although now we are at the stage of talking robots and 3D printed bone transplants, visionary scientist-artists like Leonardo da Vinci sketched out the plan for a helicopter long before there were any signs of air travel. So it goes without saying that science has kept curious minds busy imagining how machines can look in the future, that is, science has the potential to inspire imagination and even stories.


Let's take a step towards understanding fiction first. One question you may ask yourself is this: Isn't a work of fiction supposed to be a bunch of mixed-up things completely the brainchild of your imagination, having no link to reality at all? Wrong. While fiction passes as a piece of imaginary work, it is not limited to the content or associations it can have with reality. If we read between the lines, we can find bits and pieces of reality even in high fantasy novels. But that is another story- literally.

Literature Study Guides1776

1776 is a best-selling work of narrative history by the acclaimed historian David McCullough. While working on his previous book, a biography of John Adams, McCullough became fascinated with the 18th century and made the year that defined the American struggle for independence the topic of his next project.

McCullough directs the reader's attention away from the debates of Philadelphia's Continental Congress and the signing of the Declaration of Independence toward the trials of the ragtag army of citizen-soldiers under the command of General George Washington.

The Most Banned Books of 2017 (And Beyond)
Books in America aren’t burned, but frequently pulled from library shelves. Often for strange political, religious, or social issues from communism to LGBTQ+ rights, some of America’s best literary works have been challenged in the public sphere. We’ve taken a look back at which books have been challenged the most in the past five years, from the suicide-themed Thirteen Reasons Why to the smash hit Fifty Shades of Gray to critically acclaimed classics like The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian.

What’s going on? Why are Americans pulling books out of the library? Often the reasons cited, especially in recent years, have to do with concepts sexual in nature: gender values, sexual conduct, and nudity. Then there's also books containing LGBT content and trans identities, which have had to fight to stay on shelves. With an influx of diversity-focused books is a corresponding influx of intensely negative reactions, especially from 2014 and onward. But let’s look back at the most banned books of all time: 1984, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, The Catcher and the Rye, The Color Purple, and The Great Gatsby. They’re all now considered timeless classics! Will today’s rejected novels be tomorrow’s class favorites?

Films You Didn’t Know Were Adapted From Books
Books are often the starting points of films, whether the director decides to follow the storyline indefinitely, or to base their work upon it. Films that are based on books can often completely divide an audience, with some saying that the book will always be better than the film adaptation, while others would argue the fact that the film is based on a book means it will have a clearer story and plotline. Wherever you may stand on this, there may be a few films you had no idea were actually based on books.
