CONTRADICTION IN LITERATURE

  • 1. Lecturer of "History and Philology Department" At The Asia International University

Description

Contradiction in literature refers to the presence of opposing ideas, perspectives, or statements within a literary work. Authors often use contradictions to create tension, deepen characters, and highlight complex themes. Rather than weakening a narrative, contradictions can strengthen it by encouraging readers to question assumptions and explore multiple interpretations. This article examines the concept of contradiction in literature, its functions, and its significance in literary analysis.
