Answer and Explanation:

Literary sources are important in reconstructing the past because they provide detailed knowledge of the social, political, cultural and economic dimensions of the past. Examples of literary sources include manuscripts, foreign accounts, and religious texts. They allow us to learn and read about our past and history, old languages we used, and important events in history in great detail.
