This paper deals with the aims and objectives of teaching language and
literature. In countries to which English is a foreign language, the
teaching of literature is either used to make students learn the FL or
for esthetic purposes. As for teaching EFL, it is taken as a step towards
the use of English as an international language and/or as a means to
the appreciation of the literature of that language, i.e. English (Betti,
2020b: 18 and Betti, 2021m: 2).
What is sad above also depends on the aims and objectives of the
institution which students join for learning EFL. For instance, in Iraq,
four colleges teach EFL (Betti, 1990: 56; and Betti, 1996: 76):
1. Colleges of Education

English including literature, linguistic and language in Colleges of
Education to help students learn the FL is applicable here in Colleges of
Basic Education. So, the aims of teaching literature are as we explained.
