Literature and history are interconnected. History provides literature with materials to create fictional or non-fictional works, while literature can also be a form of recording and representing history. While history aims for objectivity, literature allows for imagination and creativity. Both involve narrating past human events and experiences in various forms such as printed works, poems, articles, and books.
