A Literary Heritage Text refers to a work of literature that is recognized as being of significant cultural, historical, or artistic value, often forming part of a country’s or culture’s literary canon. These texts are typically regarded as classics and have stood the test of time, contributing to the understanding and appreciation of a language, society, or literary tradition. They are often included in educational curricula due to their enduring themes, language, and insights into the human condition. Examples are “The Iliad” and “The Odyssey” by Homer, “Don Quixote” by Miguel de Cervantes, and “War and Peace” by Leo Tolstoy.
