	Roosevelt, Theodore. 1913. History as Literature: I. History as Literature
		Because history, science, and literature have all become specialized, the theory now is that science is definitely severed from literature and that history must follow suit.
		Literature may be defined as that which has permanent interest because both of its substance and its form, aside from the mere technical value that inheres in a special treatise for specialists.
		For a great work of literature there is the same demand now that there always has been; and in any great work of literature the first element is great imaginative power.

	Korean Literature (Character of Korean Literature, Korean Classical Literature, Modern Literature of Korea)
		The literature of the Koryo period is marked by an increased use of Chinese letters, the disappearance of Hyangga, and the emergence of Koryo kayo (Koryo songs) which continued to be transmitted as oral literature until the Choson period.
		Korean modern literature was formed against the background of the crumbling feudalistic society of the Choson Dynasty, the importation of new ideas from the West, and the new political reality of rising Japanese imperial power in East Asia.
		The change from traditional to modern literature during the Enlightenment period was largely due to the effects of the New Education and the Korean Language and Literature movement.

	Publishing the New Culture: Singapore's Newspapers and Diaspora Literature, 1919-1933
		In fact, some historians refer to the years immediately surrounding 1919 not as the era of the New Culture Movement, but as the May Fourth period.[5] Regardless of their terminology, most scholars find it difficult to separate the larger intellectual movement of the 1920s from the specific incidents of 1919.
		Not only was 1919 the year of these important protests, but it was also the year the editors of the newspaper Hsin Kuo Min Jih Pao (New People's Daily) first printed their influential literary supplement, the Hsin Kuo Min Tsa Chih (New People's Magazine).

	Nobel Prize in Literature 1919 - Presentation Speech
		The Swedish Academy, in accordance with the statutes of the Nobel Founcation, has awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature for 1919, which was not awarded last year, to the Swiss poet Carl Spitteler for his epic, Olympischer Frühling (1906) [Olympian Spring].
		This is not to say that we in any way subscribe to the opinion that this poem represents the fruit of a persistent struggle with the darkness of thought rather than of a lucid liberal inspiration.
		At the banquet, Professor Oscar Montelius addressed the Swiss Minister of Foreign Affairs, Count Wrangel, who received the Prize for Carl Spitteler, and asked him to inform the poet of the Academy's concern for his health and of the hope that he would soon be able to write other works as remarkable as Olympischer Frühling.
