ABSTRACT
The field of English literature has traditionally been shaped by human imagination, emotion, and language and culture experience. From classical epics to postmodern narratives, literature has served as a mirror of society and human consciousness. In the 21st century, however AI has emerged as a powerful force influencing not only science and technology but also the humanities. The integration of AI into English literature marks a significant shift in how texts are written, analyzed, taught and interpreted. Rather than replacing human creativity, AI is reshaping literary practices and expanding the boundaries of literary expression.
