Search Results - Genre

Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

A genre (pronounced /'???nr?/, also /'d???nr?/; from French "kind" or "sort", from Latin genus (stem gener-)) is a loose set of criteria for a category of composition; the term is often used to categorize literature and speech, but is also used for any other form of art or utterance.

Genres are vague categories with no fixed boundaries, they are formed by sets of conventions, and many works cross into multiple genres by way of borrowing and recombining these conventions. The scope of the word "genre" is sometimes confined to art and culture, particularly literature, but it has a long history in rhetoric as well. In genre studies the concept of genre is not compared to originality. Rather, all works are recognized as either reflecting on or participating in the conventions of genre.

Genres are often divided into subgenres. Literature, for example, is divided into three basic kinds of literature, which are the classic genres of Ancient Greece poetry, drama, and prose. Poetry may then be subdivided into epic, lyric, and dramatic. Subdivisions of drama includes foremost comedy and tragedy, while eg. comedy itself has subgenres, including farce, comedy of manners, burlesque, satire, and so on. However, any of these terms would be called "genre", and its possible more general terms implied.

Genre also has a rich tradition in speech-making and criticism. Classical rhetoricians in Greece suggested that there were three primary genres of speech forensic, deliberative, and epideictic. Forensic speeches are informative, aiming to establish something that happened. Deliberative speeches try to persuade an audience. Epideictic speeches praise or blame a person, value, or event. As with literary genres, there are subgenres that exist under each of these over-arching genres apologia, funeral orations, and the after-dinner speech might be considered three sub-genres of epideictic rhetoric.

10. Acoustic Guitar Solo Instrumentals
November 06, 2008

Acoustic guitar solos make up a slice of a musical genre that has all but vanished from popular music - instrumentals. By instrumentals I mean music that is composed and played by a human using musical instruments rather than techno instrumentals that may not be composed and played in the traditional way. Not that there's anything wrong with that. I just thought it might be useful for some guitar players to take a quick look at the part the acoustic guitar has played in instrumental music. After all the acoustic guitar is the instrument that is always ready for us to pick up and express our fe... (read more)

13. What is Physical Theatre and Commedia Dell'arte? An Interview With Wyckham Avery
November 03, 2008

Q: How did you start in physical theatre? A: When I was a teenager I was very lucky to have worked with Dan Hurlin who is a phenomenal performance artist, writer and teacher. We didn't talk about the work as a genre like 'physical theatre' or 'realism' or 'absurdism' we just worked very physically. He taught me that acting was sweaty and theatre didn't have to look like real life. As I got older and found myself wanting more than what my Stanislavsky-based work was giving me, I started searching for other styles that paralleled my work with Dan, which eventually brought me to the Dell' Ar...

The Wii Family Trainer. This game comes hot on the trail of the hugely successful Wii-Fit and while many people will see this as an opportunistic rip-off, I don’t completely agree with that statement, it may be opportunistic but I wouldn’t call it a rip-off.  There are plenty of games which can accurately be described as rip-offs but you can’t on one hand claim that Wii-Fit is a fresh idea and then jump on the next game which comes along and makes use of a similar formula.  If every genre and sub-genre only had room for one title, while we would have a much easier time choosing what to play n...
