Sharing is Caring

Literature in general denotes the written works in the form of poem, story, essays, rhetorical write ups etc. But when it come to research, especially in literature review, the term literature gives a very different meaning. In such a case literature can be in any form; text, photographs, videos, audio clips etc. related to a particular subject matter or area which could be useful for a researcher to go through before proceeding for his her own research work.  Reviewing past works or literature in a particular topic helps him her to gain more information, knowledge on that topic. It would guide him\her in their research. Such literature may help avoid duplication of work as well.

"Water, water, everywhere,   And all the boards did shrink; Water, water, every where, Nor any drop to drink" The stanza is from S.T.Coleridge’s poem The Rime of the Ancient Mariner which indicates the voyager’s narration of a situation when they were stuck amid the sea due to curse caused by shooting an albatross . In a nutshell, we can’t drink sea water straightly but after treating well, we can.     To relate, we get stuck with empty water vessels and dried up wells during dry season as drinking water crisis matters us the most since condition of drinking water supply throughout the country is bad, being worse in the Kathmandu Valley.             We, Kathmanduites, get water supply alternatively or once in a blue moon. Many a time, we have to keep vainglorious night vigils for the glimpse of water drops even in normal season. On top of that the recent massive earthquake has fanned the fire by drying...
