DIFFERENCES AND SIMILARITIES IN 21ST CENTURY LITERATURE GENRES

Literature teaches us humanity, to be sensitive and empathetic towards others. It also provides us an outlet for our thoughts, emotions, and imagination. During the 21st century, these literary pieces have transcended from paper to the digital world and has never stopped ever since.

In this blog, I am going to specify three very important and renowned 21st Century Literature Genres, and we will compare and contrast them. The three pieces are: Graphic Novel, Manga, and Doodle Fiction.

Graphic Novels are narrative and written in comic book formats. These novels can be employed in broad manner, encompassing non- fiction to fiction, from short to long stories.Manga, a Japanese word for comics, is a generic term for all comic books and graphic novels originally published in Japan.Doodle Fictions, are literary presentations where the author incorporates doodle writing, drawing, and handwritten graphics in place of the traditional font to enhance the story, or to add humurous effects.

(Differences in terms of Structure) Differences in Manga and Graphic Novels are very little since both are in comic book style. Both of which have panels to separate a scene from another scene. In terms of text, they vary their language and structure in the formality of the pieces. Basically, the most obvious difference in structure is in contrast to Doodle Fictions. Doodle Fictions follow a novel or story book type of narration, unlike the Manga and Graphic Novels. Doodle fictions show both text and pictures in a way like articles are written, while, the comic book styles don't. (Differences in terms of Elements) Although they have their many respective elemental similarities, they're most common elemental difference is in art style and narration. Doodle fictions use handwritten elements to write its text and drawing. Manga use a very specific Japanese art style to draw the graphics, also they are read from right to left. Elements in Manga always pertain, exclusively, to the Japanese. These Japanese elements include culture, the people, environment, behavior, and the likes. Whereas, the Doodle Fictions and Graphic Novels can be from any country. Lastly, Graphic novels use a very Americanized art style in drawing the comic, and must be read from left to right. (Similarities) In order to tell a story, all of these genres need drawings, illustrations, or graphics. To be even more clear, each of these styles includes images that effectively interest readers. All of them are from the twenty-first century. Each genre could not have existed without the use of a computer or other digital technologies.

The three of these 21st century literary masterpieces have many similarities and differences in terms of structure and elements, yet, these don't actually matter when you read them. Just have fun, be entertained, appreciate the art, and live life at your fullest. Always remember to keep rekindling the fire of literature. All sources for the definition of each literature came from 21st Century Literature from the Philippines and the World.
