Abstract

This research was aimed to 1) investigate the attitudes of learners towards literature, and 2) discover the impact of literature and literary texts on cultural awareness and language skills in Thai EFL undergraduate students. A blend of qualitative and quantitative research configuration was embraced. An abstract content was coordinated into an EFL class with 100 English major students at Buriram Rajabhat University. It is one of universities in the Northeast of Thailand. The samples were chosen by a simple random sampling method. Semi-structured interviews were done with the illustrations by the analyst. The discoveries of the research showed consistency between the participant Thai EFL students' points of view. They all pointed out the advantages of utilizing literature and literary texts as integrating students' cultural awareness and language skills.
