We know that writer has powerful influence on society.
The writer may have more powerful influence than the laws making people.
Most of use are laws abiding citizens. To obey a number of laws seems natural to the civilized man. Ordinarily we say that these laws of State are for our good, but perhaps behind our obidience to the law of State is the fear of punishment. It is for this reason that maker of peoples laws has a great deal of influence.
Though the law maker has the influence over the people for whom he makes laws, but there is another person who exerts an even greater influence that he. This is the writer or the poet. Poetry has its profoundest influence, stirring the innermost depths of the soul and these stirring of soul are momentous as much as they influence permanent attitude of man.
In history, there are many instances when poets have influenced the political attitude of a people.
Poets have helped to lead the armies on to the war and individuals to hold their heads high against oppression and adverse circumstances.
We may say that the difference between the law and poetry is the difference between matter and spirit. Also the writer depicts society and differentiate between the evil and good things in his writing, as we know that most of the writers help to arouse patriotism in people of the nation if his poem about nationality and patriotism.
As Shakespear,one of the great dramacist, has depicted society by writing dramas.
Similary Elif Shafak, novelist, has depicted the American society and has illustrated the women rights in his novel "Fourty Rules of Love"
Similarly another novel "The Outsider" written by S.E Hisntson has also depicted the todays society that how society is divided into upper and lower class people.
In short we can say that writer also plays a great role in building a nation..
