Abstract
Teaching English as a foreign language is a process whose aim is changeable from culture to
culture and individual to individual. These problems made teachers to find and develop new
methods and techniques in order to improve the teaching and learning process. There are
various reasons for using literature in ELT. The first and essential one is that language in
literature texts is taken as valuable source of authentic language to expand the language
awareness. The second reason is that lessons which involve literature in teaching and learning
provoke interaction, discussion, critical thinking and educate the persons’ personality and it is
motivating. Finally, there are disadvantages in using literature in ELT. Despite the enthusiasm
of those who are in for using literature, there is still a point which claims that the use of literature
is not always pleasurable for all the learners.
