Oral literature

Researchers study the different communities. The methodology and theory that they use to analyse the community literature either oral or written differs in its application as well as comprehension. Many scholars have approached the issue in a different way. But still there is a growing demand for the more reliable empathetic theory and methodology to understand the life experiences of the communities’ especially nomadic communities. I will concentrate only on Nomadic Communities in the scope of this

a perfect description of its genre. David Kraemer chronicles this in his Reading the Rabbis: The Talmud as Literature, asserting that, as a student, one often proceeds “more on the basis of intuition than on the foundation of a self-conscious method,” choosing rather to chase shadows of potential genre-classifying factors rather than search wholly for substantive definitions of “literature” or “literary” and proceed with a certain scientific method. Thus, the challenge which he and other authors

Orature literature are stories that were once told by tongue, but have been written down to be preserved. Orature literature focuses on important events and issues people wanted to preserve through time. For example, class was discussed heavily because of the unfair structures of the economy. Studies have shown time and time again that money is unfairly distributed through the social classes.

The Middle English Literature time period lasted from 110 to 1500. In this unique period, English got maturity and widespread popularity throughout Europe. This type of literature had many characteristics such as impersonality, chivalry, romance, oral quality, and courtly love. In the legendary story, Le Morte D’Arthur, the story differs from Middle English Literature by not being anonymous and not having an oral quality.

oppressive mechanisms of power. We’ve questioned our understanding of “good” and “serious” writing, coming to realize that such labels are defined by a normative and limiting view of literature. But, we’ve also questioned our very understanding of what counts as “writing” through exploring different forms of literature [Hold up Persepolis, One Hundred Demons, for colored girls]. This has been something that I’ve been grappling with all semester. I know now after studying these works that there is a

My English Literature major has helped me to achieve an outstanding level of appreciation, enjoyment, and knowledge of both American and British Literature. As a high school AP English student, I struggled through great works like Hamlet and To the Lighthouse. My teacher’s daily lectures (there was no such thing as class discussion) taught me merely to interpret the works as critics had in the past. I did not enjoy the reading or writing process. As a freshman at Loras, I was enrolled in the Critical

claim to be writing magical realism.” Magical realism, being one of the more intricate forms of literature genres, is primarily unheard of. The public often likes to confuse it with more popularized classifications, such as fantasy and sci-fi. However, this is entirely false. Magical realism retains numerous, distinguishing, necessary elements, which includes: a mix of the mundane and magical, influence of oral tradition, and even the presence of cultural realities that contain unexplainable events.

Literature does not always come in a written form. Native American literature, for example, was mainly an oral form of storytelling. This form of literature often includes certain characteristics throughout the story. These characteristics range from ways that the stories were told to what the stories include or involve. One common characteristic is in the way the Native Americans presented the stories. The storyteller regularly used certain incidents multipliable times (Gunther, 2016). The account

Literature can be branched as a form of art with the way authors or artists can express themselves through their work. Literature inspired a spirit of defining the changing views on politics, religion, territory, and societal ways. Authors such as Roger Williams, Anne Bradstreet, William Bradford, and many more got swept across this literary movement. As the world was changing around each author who contributed to literature, so did each of their realities. It was how people lived that presented
