If we adopted Confucianism, our literature would change. The [|Confucian Literature] is informational, but our Modern Literature tends to be outrageous tales. Modern Literature can be whatever the author wants, they make up non-existent characters in unlikely scenarios; Modern Literature does not focus on nature and harmony like the works of Confucianism. Literature would be very educational and provide a better understanding of how you should present yourself and how you should live life if we were to adopt Confucianism. The Confucianism Literature focused on its own society only, so there would not be the wide variety of settings and occurrences for the different novels, poems, etc as there are in Modern Literature. It was also rare to come across a fiction writing, whereas in Modern Literature, fiction works are plentiful. The themes in Modern Literature a lot of times focus on death and [|drama], Confucianists focus of life and meet death with content and try to live peaceful lives, including peace away from drama. Another major difference is that Confucian Literature is simple and easy to understand, Modern Literature often requires 'reading between the lines' and is more difficult for some to comprehend. Our Modern Literature is extremely different than the literature of Confucianism; therefore, the change in our Literature would be drastic.
