How literature affected nationalism

Literature affects Nationalism by putting articles in newspapers that gave people either the wrong image or a picture that has been taken way out of context. The more people saw these articles the more they believed what it was saying. In the papers they put the idea in peoples head that war was a good thing and that you couldn’t escape it so you should be excited for it. For example, in 1905 the newspapers we saying that war with Germany was inevitable, in other words they were saying that you couldn’t escape it, that it was going to happen wether you liked it or not.
