The Importance of Fiction
How could anyone suggest that people should onlyread about real events, real people, and established facts? For one thing, that means peoplewouldn’t be reading half of all the great books that have ever been written, not to mention theplays, short stories and poetry. For another, it would mean that people’s imaginations would notdevelop as children and would remain dulled throughout their lives.
Reading stories as a child helps develop our creativity by reaching us a lot about how to usewords to create mental images. It open our world up, exposing us to other times and differentways of living. Reading histories of those times would serve kind of the same purpose, but itprobably wouldn’t stick in our minds as sharply. Reading an essay about poverty in VictorianEngland is not the same thing as reading in Charles Dicken’s Oliver Twist. The images of a smallboy being sold are more horrifying than simply reading the statement, “children were sold intolabor “because a novel makes that small boy seem real to understanding fiction makes a morelasting impression on our minds and emotions.
Besides, storytelling is an emotional need for human beings. From earliest times, humanshave taught their children about life, not by telling them facts and figures, but by telling themstories. Some of these stories show what people are like (human nature),and help us experiencea wide range of feelings. Some make us think about how we should act. Telling a child that it’swrong to lie will make little impression, but telling him the story of a little boy whose growslonger every time be tell a lie will make a big impression.
Fiction is too important to our culture, our minds, and our emotions. How could we ever give itup?
