Is the use of Brackets correct?

. Furthermore, I encountered one of my favorite quotes from this book, and that is [literature] “… is an instrument not so much for solving problems as for finding them” (Bruner 150).

this is the original quote:
" It is an instrument not so much for solving problems as for finding them” (Bruner 150).

i just added [literature] to signify what it meant. and took out "it"

suggestions? or it's good?

"[Literature] is an instrument... " But the bracketed word that replaces the pronoun inside the quote marks.
