English, to me, is an empowering medium. The language is pivotal to many of us today in communicating with and understanding each other, not just through the words we say, but through a speaker’s message and intentions. This is based around my unequivocal belief that ‘All worthy work is open to interpretations the author did not intend’, as Joss Whedon most eloquently versed, making literature a source of escapism and a way of putting to words the intricacies of the world in which we live.
Perhaps this is why I am attracted to Tolstoy’s ‘War and Peace’, a personal favourite of mine, which combines both my love of literature and history. The rediscovery of past events, uncovering and enlightening ourselves to the rich history of the world, and how it might have shaped societal structures and ideologies today is of great interest to me. Reading the novel for the first time, I was overwhelmed by the vast sea of words, but soon I was engrossed in the lives of Tolstoy’s constructs- following the lines with an anxiously beating heart, eager to find out whether Princess Marya would break free from the oppressive shackles imposed by her father and if Pierre Bezukhov will be ensnared by the licentious Helene Kuragina. It was whilst reading this novel that I discovered the power of literature and my passion for novels.
Studying English Literature at A-Level has helped me develop my analytical, descriptive and overall creative abilities- enriching me as a writer and enhancing my thoughts as my own critic. I hold initiative and self-criticism in high regard as in my opinion, the process of learning in itself is a learning curve and that only through being able to identify one’s errors and misjudgements can one truly strive for the best. This is a lesson which I find should be applied both academically and in other aspects of life.
Exploring my love for literature, I came across the riveting works of Agatha Christie- from which I developed an interest for crime investigation and the functions of criminal minds. I became infatuated with Christie’s detective novels, eager to reach the ending, to discover who the murderer was this time. Christie’s great works made feel the way in which I think all readers should feel when absorbed by such great works and has helped me modify my own writing style. However, I still have room to learn and grow, which I will be able to do studying English at a higher level.
