Language is succinctly defined in our glossary as a "human system of communication that uses arbitrary signals, such as voice sounds, gestures, or written symbols." But frankly, language is far too complicated, intriguing, and mysterious to be adequately explained by a brief definition.
The following observations on language, drawn from the works of various writers and scholars, take us beyond definitions. Approaching the subject from different metaphorical perspectives, these quotations may serve as points of departure for exploring the mysteries--and the limitations--of language.

"Every individual is at once the beneficiary and the victim of the linguistic tradition into which he has been born--the beneficiary inasmuch as language gives access to the accumulated records of other people's experience, the victim in so far as it confirms him in the belief that reduced awareness is the only awareness and as it bedevils his sense of reality, so that he is all too apt to take his concepts for data, his words for actual things." (Aldous Huxley, The Doors of Perception, 1954)

"Language is an anonymous, collective and unconscious art; the result of the creativity of thousands of generations." (Edward Sapir)

"As Horne Tooke, one of the founders of the noble science of philology, observes, language is an art, like brewing or baking; but writing would have been a better simile. It certainly is not a true instinct, for every language has to be learnt. It differs, however, widely from all ordinary arts, for man has an instinctive tendency to speak, as we see in the babble of our young children; (…) Moreover, no philologist now supposes that any language has been deliberately invented; it has been slowly and unconsciously developed by many steps." (Charles Darwin, The Descent of Man, 1871)

The choices skilled writers make about the use of language enable them to express ideas that will contribute significantly, not only to our delirium, but also to the cultural content of a society.
 
Indeed, it is through language that writers are able to transmit the habits, routines, context, traditions etc. of a people. Literature, then, opens the doors to the human soul and leads readers to a closer look on human beings and their culture(s)

Culture is the characteristics of a particular group of people, defined by everything from language, religion, cuisine, social habits, music and arts. Today, in the United States as in other countries populated largely by immigrants, the culture is influenced by the many groups of people that now make up the country.

Since each language has its own distinctive features, which are peculiar to a people and their way of conceiving the world, we can only expect that the literature produced in a specific language will say about those people, their culture and their society.

In fact, literature, as a subjective human expression, enables readers to understand not only themselves, but also their culture and their people, as well as other cultures and other people more deeply.

“A literatura expressa os dilemas, sentimentos e muitas vezes a realidade do homem, de maneira a explorar o raciocínio e o imaginário do leitor, transportando-o para o lugar do outro.
 
Desse modo, ela leva o leitor à análise de realidades diversas, impulsionando-o ao conhecimento, pois trata de reflexos da história e da realidade social de determinadas comunidades retratando a cultura, os costumes, e a organização política e social de determinada região...”

As part of the culture of a specific society, literature enables readers to understand the social patterns that were/are considered important to that society, such as
the changes that took place, its cultural and organizational manifestations, its progress etc.
Besides, literature, through its unique form of expression, is able to highlight those factors which are essential for a society, for example, its problems, its customs, as well as its political and social organization.
