| ARTICLES RELATED TO Literature | | | |  Literature: Encyclopedia II - E. Nesbit - LiteratureNesbit's literary output was tremendous. Writing by herself, she published about 40 books for children: either novels or collections of stories. Collaborating with others, she published almost as many more, as well as a great deal of "hack" journalism that remains largely uncollected.
Nesbit's books for children are known for being entertaining without turning didactic, although some of her earlier works, notably Five Children and It, veer in that direction.

| | | | | Literature: Encyclopedia II - Culture of Portugal - Literature Portugal is sometimes known as "a country of poets". In fact, Portuguese poetry has a bigger influence in the country's literature than prose. In the dawn of nationality, poetry in Portuguese-Galician was widely popular in the Northwest of the Iberian Peninsula. There are excellent works, in lyrical as in epic poetry. Without a doubt, the most worldwide known Portuguese poets are Luís de Camões and Fernando Pessoa, but we should also state the modern Portuguese poetry (since the 19th century) has its roots in a handful of ...

| | | | | | Literature: Encyclopedia II - Christianity in Malaysia - Literature In Malaysia, the government has banned usage of the Indonesian-language Bible and Malay-language Bible, both known by the name "al-kitab". The reason for the ban is that both books use the term Allah for God. However, there is no closer translation from the original Hebrew since both Allah and the Hebrew word for God come from the same Semitic root. Other Christian materials in the Malay language have been banned at various times.
The Iban Bible named "Bup Kudus" was also banned for using the term "Allah Taala" for God. Eventually it ...

| | | | | | Literature: Encyclopedia II - Lucifer - Literature Lucifer is a key protagonist in John Milton's Protestant epic, Paradise Lost.

Later, Lucifer enters the Garden of Eden, where he successfully tempts Eve, wife of Adam, to eat fruit from the Tree of knowledge of good and evil.
