This article explores the methodological and practical advantages of incorporating literary texts into foreign language teaching for students majoring in energy engineering. As future specialists in a highly technical and globally relevant field, these students require not only linguistic competence but also intercultural awareness and critical thinking skills. The paper analyzes how selected literary texts can support language acquisition, foster motivation, and enrich technical education by connecting language learning with humanistic perspectives. It also outlines specific strategies and challenges in applying literary content within an engineering-oriented curriculum.
