Literature genre and literary works were two related but not completely identical concepts. Literature genre referred to the form and structure of literary works, including novels, poems, essays, plays, movies, music, and so on. Every genre has its own unique form and structure, as well as specific topics, emotions, and styles. For example, novels usually used narration as the main means to convey the theme by describing the experiences of the characters and the development of the story; poems usually used lyricism and emotion as the main purpose; essays usually used free and casual forms to express the author's thoughts and feelings. A literary work was any work that expressed the author's unique thoughts and emotions in the form and structure of a literary genre. The literary works could be novels, poems, essays, plays, movies, music, etc. It could also be other non-literary works such as novels, poetry recitals, paintings, sculptures, etc. Therefore, the main difference between a literary genre and a literary work lies in its form and structure, as well as the theme, emotion, and style expressed. Literature genre is the foundation of literary works, which determines the form and structure of the works, and literary works can be developed and expanded on this basis.
