Living text π️π°
Newspapers are considered to be 'living texts'. I got to hear this term from my professor Dr Samuel Rufus sir today. I felt that is true. We turn to literatures, trace the development of it and their history, to books that are heavy etc, but the newspaper is something that is an active documentor which states the past , conveys the present and also tries to lay the futuristic perspective. It takes us through various platforms and tries to convey what's happening around us.
Both words and pictures speak in this documentation. There is a famous proverb, 'a pen is mighter than a sword'. Newspaper is led by the pen I believe. That pen tries to project all the genres and information to us right! When we read a newspaper we would actually find that we will get introduced to not only facts and information but also to many new words. That one particular word in a particular article would try to convey the idea as possible as it can. An aphoristic style. In that we will know words and also can relate to the word by having the idea of the entire content. Learning a new word along with realistic examples. That learning the newspapers gives us. A greater knowledge at an affordable cost.
