Synonyms of "Literature" and their differences
Q:
В чем разница между I like 19th-century literature и I like the 19th-century literature ?
A:
The first sentence is 100% correct. The second sentence is confusing. That’s the difference.
There is only one 19th century, with only one set of literature that comes from that time. So it’s very confusing that you would choose to utilise the definite article, when we already know that this is one specific thing that cannot be substituted with any other thing. In other words – what are you trying to say by including the definite article? It’s completely unnecessary.
On the other hand, if you were going to extend your sentence and say something like –
I like the 19th century literature produced in Russia.… Now, we have a reason for being specific, because it’s only the 19th century literature from Russia that we’re talking about… Not ALL the 19th century literature.

Q:
I recently noticed that an old English literature book used a sentence that is rarely used in modern English. They say, Had she died, and my friend told me it's like a conditional (grammatically) so it can be said if she had died. Could someone elaborate more on this? I am not sure about this
A:
its more context based. Had refers to as "has happened". So Had she died is to say, her death has happened. But it makes sense in context.
