Reasons for the Proposal This special issue focuses on research articles on the impact of education, linguistics, literature on human’s life. As we know, linguistics is also an important part of our lives because it's the source of speech and the medium for expressing our thoughts. Therefore, linguistics comes first as the tool to reflect human thoughts and feelings. In the initial stage, the common feature of all works is the presentation of information. However, the form of its presentation and content change from one to another. Thus, literature appeared as one of the fields where views on life, human experiences are presented in an innovative way. Because, from this perspective, literature is a portrayal of thought, sense, and emotion through the tool of language. At the end of this process, literature has provided great contributions to individuals, states, societies (Tanwete & Kombinda, 2020). From the beginning of his role on Earth, man has been in pursuit of knowledge. His first goal was to understand the nature and the things around him. After his curiosity about surrounding things was satisfied to some extent and he was able to discuss issues and exchange views over these matters, he started to learn with the purpose of gaining new knowledge and expressing his views better. Therefore, learning and gaining knowledge must be a part of the nature of mankind or an element of his traits. From that time, education started its evolution by gradually becoming widespread within the societies. The mentality, philosophy, religion, customs, and traditions were conveyed to new generations through education, which created the beliefs, character, attitudes, as well as political behavior. Implicitly, education showed its impact on these matters. Thus, indirect learning is a form of education (Fazey et al.2020).
