	Smuggling - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Smuggling is illegal transport, in particular across a border.
		One method of defeating smuggling is to legalize the activity the smugglers are undertaking and reducing or eliminating the taxes which the smugglers are avoiding, thus reducing the profit potential and making the smuggling activity uneconomic as the goods would then be available for a lower price via legal channels.
		Smuggling now is considerably diversified: the smuggling of immigrants, armaments, illegal drugs, as well as the historical staples of smuggling, alcohol and tobacco are widespread throughout the Western world.

		Literature is literally "an acquaintance with letters" (as in the first sense given in the Oxford English Dictionary), but has generally come to identify a collection of texts.
		For example, the works of Charles Dickens are perceived by almost everyone as being "literature", whereas the works of Jeffrey Archer tend to be looked down on as unworthy of inclusion under the general heading of English literature.
		Poetry is perhaps the oldest form of literature: The Sumerian Epic of Gilgamesh dates from around 3000 B.C.; the Bible and the works of Homer, the Iliad and the Odyssey.

		Literature is literally "an acquaintance with letters" as in the first sense given in the Oxford English Dictionary; the term has, however, generally come to identify a collection of texts.
		The word "literature" spelled with a lower-case "l" can refer to any form of writing, such as essays; while "Literature" spelled with an upper-case "L" may refer to a whole body of literary work, world-wide or relating to a specific culture.
		Some recent philosophy undoubtedly merits the title "literature" — the work of Wittgenstein, for example, does; but much of it does not, and some areas, such as logic, have become extremely technical to the same degree as the sciences.

		The word "literature" as a common noun can refer to any form of writing, such as essays or poetry; "Literature" as a proper noun refers to a whole body of literary work, world-wide or relating to a specific culture.
		However "Literature", with emphasis on uppercase L, is a subset of the more general "literature".
		Consequently, a Harry Potter novel will be included in "literature" (singular) but not in "Literature" (singular) since most people would not deem the books as sufficiently intellectual or meaningful at an academic level.

		For example, almost all literate people percieve the works of Charles Dickens as "literature", whereas many tend to look down on the works of Jeffrey Archer as unworthy of inclusion under the general heading of English literature.
		Typically though, poetry as a form of literature makes some significant use of the formal properties of the words it uses — these properties being attached to the written or spoken form of the words, rather than to their meaning.
		Poetry perhaps pre-dates other forms of literature: early known examples include the Sumerian Epic of Gilgamesh (dated from around 3000 B.C.), the Bible and the surviving works of Homer (the Iliad and the Odyssey).

		They are among the oldest prose writings in existence; novels and prose stories earned the names "fiction" to distinguish them from factual writing, which is what prose has historically been used for.
		A great deal of historical writing can still be called literature, as can a great deal of journalism; but these areas have become extremely large, and often their purpose is just utilitarian: to record data or convey immediate information.
		As a result the writing in these fields is not as a rule literary, although it often and in its better moments is. Major historians include Herodotus, Thucydides, Procopius, all of whom are considered canonical literary figures.

		Officials said Lauck, whose extradition is being sought by Hamburg authorities, had been smuggling banned hate literature into Germany for more than 20 years, to be copied and distributed among neo-Nazi groups.
		Lauck enjoys near-hero status among neo-Nazis for his skill in smuggling nationalist and anti-Semitic writings into Germany through a confusing network of foreign addresses.
		Denmark's liberal freedom of speech laws have frustrated German requests in the past to silence neo-Nazis on its soil, and officials were not sure Copenhagen would automatically comply with the request to extradite Lauck.

		Lewis and Tolkien made this the hall mark of their fantasy literature, i.e., "smuggling the Gospel," "baptizing the imagination," and "stealing past the Watchful dragons" of our modern secular faith via story echoing the Great Story — but in this they were only self-conscious throwbacks to the rule of English literature.
		Lewis in his 'Preface to Paradise Lost' explains that the principal function of literature is to "instruct while delighting" and most of the literary instruction from Chaucer to Tolkien is about God Talk or our lives in Christ.
		Entertainment per se, as much as it is diversion and distraction from an essentially naturalist or atheistic culture, is a religious activity engaging faculties of soul otherwise always left idle and atrophied.
