Literature and awards have been integral to every culture and kingdom for years. Language, culture, and traditions directly impact human life and progression. All these are encapsulated into literature that will help future generations to study, analyze and understand heritage and history. This literature has been shared across generations barring the borders. When the concept of religion arose in various parts of the world, the exchange of cultures and literature had an effective place.
When various kingdoms flourished, people with a knack for arts became scholars, speakers, poets, writers, narrators, musicians, painters, artisans and much more. Here, literature is seated at the highest level. Considering literature in India back when we had dynasties ruling the Hindu Maha Dweepa, Gupta, Maurya, Nanda, Chola, Pandya, Sathavahana, Chalukya, Vijayanagara, Kakatiya, and many more had an impressive impact on the land and culture. Art and artists were celebrated like the divine Supremes and were rewarded with land, gold, and other precious stones apart from titles! To date, we remember those poets and writers from their titles. This foreword is to understand the importance of literary awards and the legacy it has been carrying for ages.
Literary awards are very helpful in promoting literature and highlighting achievements in this field. These awards pave a concrete way to propagate history and heritage. Some literary works will remain classics for their exemplary impression it will carpet on human life. Literary awards also financially support authors and create a library of texts seen to be exemplars of excellence in writing, forging unique achievements in literary history. These prizes come with ceremonies, certificates, and money, but they also greatly influence who is remembered in literary history. This is how great writers, poets, and authors are remembered even now after eons of ages.
