/lit/ is for the discussion of literature, specifically books (fiction & non-fiction), short stories, poetry, creative writing, etc. If you want to discuss history, religion, or the humanities, go to /his/ [https://boards.4channel.org/his/]. If you want to discuss politics, go to /pol/ [https://boards.4chan.org/pol/]. Philosophical discussion can go on either /lit/ or /his/, but those discussions of philosophy that take place on /lit/ should be based around specific philosophical works to which posters can refer.
Check the wiki [https://lit.trainroll.xyz/wiki/], the catalog [https://boards.4channel.org/lit/catalog], and the archive [https://boards.4channel.org/lit/archive] before asking for advice or recommendations, and please refrain from starting new threads for questions that can be answered by a search engine.
/lit/ is a slow board! Please take the time to read what others have written, and try to make thoughtful, well-written posts of your own. Bump replies are not necessary.
