Literature has always played a vital role in reflecting and shaping societal values, attitudes, and movements. Various literary movements have emerged in response to cultural, political, and social environments, often encouraging change and challenging the status quo. We can easily say that there is no area of society that literature has not influenced. It means that literature allows us to explore the full range of humanity's lifestyle experiences highs and lows- revealing deeper emotional truths rather than absolute facts. It emphasizes the power of stories and imagination to convey what it means to be human or to be in a specific society. This article explores literary movements and their significant impact on social change.
