Abstract

The research paper is a modest attempt for tracing the relationship shared between Culture and Literature. Literature is one such medium, through which one culture or subculture can codify and transfer their cultural values and traditions from one generation to the next. Culture, undoubtedly is a wider concept than literature. Thus, in the teaching of culture, literature plays different roles, such as: it serves as a basis for the study and mediation of cultural phenomena. There is no literature in the world which can be put away from culture as literature always depicts the experience of life.

No literature is separate from culture; literature and culture are blended together. Literature is the off shoot of the real experiences. I have tried to depict the relationship between culture and literature.

Key words: Culture, Anarchy, Materialism, Imperialism, Orientalism,
