As a matter of course, in the 18^th century, sections of literature stayed in the background. People could not find food to eat, how were they going to think something else?

 

I am terribly sorry for children especially for the ones who could not live because of poverty. On the other hand, even if they lived, they had to work deadly. It should not make you surprise not to develop the literature in that times.

 

It is pleasing that there were many changes later. For instance, female readers increased and people needed to be knowledgeable about literature, I mean they started to be interested in. But they did not still use feelings for literature and write a poem because they wanted to. Unfortunately poetry was mostly satiric and heroic. Normally this is bad, but when it was considered the time, it was a huge development.
