>>8641962
Nobody would call these unique if they did not have their own forms.
Writing, is what all these stem from, and literature is it's own form.
>>8641974
So if they stem from literature, they are literature?
>>8641977
I suppose they would. but I don't think so. I think it's writing in general is which they come from. Including literature.
>>8641982
So you could say the final product, as in, the music, the film and the videogame are its own form.
However, the lyrics for the music and the scripts of the films and videogames, wouldn't they be literature? What's the difference between lyrics and poetry and movie/game scripts and plays?
>>8641986
Well, they differ because of presentation. Anyway, this is getting too semantical.
>>8641993
But even inside traditional literature there's difference in presentation. Plays and novels are both literature and one is meant to be acted, not read.
