Abstract

Every society is composed of individuals who share a common culture thorough the language they use. The continuity of this culture and its transmission to the other generations are mostly made through the language. The literary works are those transponders that convey the cultural heritage of the nations to the future and put a light on the past. Although literature is supposed to do so, the language is shaped in the hands of master of languages; namely, literary men. As famous Russian literary critic, writer and philosopher Belinski said, literature is the best expression of a nation’s spirit in the medium of language. In another word, the literature is to add something from the soul, feelings into the work of art by using language.
