1. Literature regarded for its aesthetic value rather than its didactic or informative content.

2. Light, stylish writings, usually on literary or intellectual subjects.

[French : bellesfine + lettresletters, literature.]

P/s: I really hope you're going to have fun learning Literature in here and I bet you will if you join me.
