Namaskar!

I am bit puzzled about the meaning of sastra in English. Is it a 'Science' as in 'Rasayan Sastra' or is it a 'Craft' as in 'ArthSastra' and 'NatyaSastra' = State Craft and Stage Craft. Or is it just religious texts which are sastras. I know that English doesnt have any equivavlent of Sanskrti but I would like to know how Sastra would be defined as. Please throw some light on this. Thanks !!!
