According to people holding this viewpoint, literature should have features that enhance the literary beauty and the uniqueness of any work. But, in this perspective the only purpose of literature would be the pleasure in connection of words and the importance of literature will only lie merely in the beauty of sentences. On the contrary, the truth is that literature for life and literature for literature, both are important for a highly appreciable piece of art. Therefore, any poetic verse or literary work is not complete unless it satisfies the conditions of both, life and artistic style.
