The need for teaching literature in schools is a necessity, including in triggering and encouraging students to love reading. For this reason, superior literary works need to be introduced in improving the literacy skills of students. The purpose of this study is to describe and apply a new paradigm regarding teaching literature in schools. This research uses qualitative methods through literature study. The results showed that the new paradigm in teaching literature in schools includes (1) learning literature is conducted in fun, enjoyable, and happy ways for students; (2) reading literary works, such as poetry, short stories, novels, dramas, and essays directly, not summaries, (3) composing classes are held in a fun manner; (4) giving appreciation to students for their multiple interpretations of a literary work; and (5) prioritizing the presentation of literary science such as theory, definition, and literary history. The most important aspect in learning literature is character education of students in which it is related to the sowing of noble values and morals in them. Literature education essentially rests on two main activities; reading and writing literary essays/ works. Thus, teachers, parents, students, and stakeholders must work together and be creative as well as innovative in realizing enjoyable learning.
