What implications does the following statement have on literature: "Philosophers have interpreted the world so far, the point is to change it."This...

The statement helps to bring the Praxis idea of Marxist
philosophy into greater focus.  The idea within Praxis is the bridging of theory and
practice, that theoretical constructs are only validated when there is some actual
understanding of practice to go along with them.  For example, Marxist notions of
alienated labor mean little if individuals cannot apply these theoretical ideas to the
real world and alter those conditions.  For the thinker who believes in a sense of
Praxis, or merging between theory and reality, the quote holds much in way of
implication regarding nature and literature.  A very interesting application of the
quote's ideas can be seen in the American Social Realist movement of the 1930s.  As the
Great Depression took a strong hold in America, artists felt the need to depict what
they saw as racial and economic injustice in their work.  This brings to light the idea
that philosophical inquiry holds importance, but must be linked to the experience of
individuals in order to hold relevance.
