Reference: Rodzaj literacki

Reference information:
Rodzaj literacki – podstawowy w literaturoznawstwie polskim (także rosyjskim i niemieckim) sposób klasyfikacji dzieł literackich. Jest to podział ze względu na formę wypowiedzi, a jednocześnie budowę utworu.

Genres are often divided into sub-genres. Literature, for instance, is divided into three basic kinds of literature, the classic genres of Ancient Greece, poetry, drama, and prose. Poetry may then be subdivided into epic, lyric, and dramatic. Subdivisions of drama include foremost comedy and tragedy, while e.g. comedy itself has sub-genres, including farce, comedy of manners, burlesque, satire, and so on.

Dramatic poetry, instance, might include comedy, tragedy, melodrama, and mixtures like tragicomedy. This parsing into sub-genres can continue: "comedy" has its own genres, including, for example, comedy of manners, sentimental comedy, burlesque comedy, and satirical comedy.
