Further information: Outline of literature and Index of literature articles

Literature broadly is any collection of written work, but it is also used more narrowly for writings specifically considered to be an art form, especially prose fiction, drama, and poetry.[1] In recent centuries, the definition has expanded to include oral literature, much of which has been transcribed.[2] Literature is a method of recording, preserving, and transmitting knowledge and entertainment.

Literature, as an art form, can also include works in various non-fiction genres, such as autobiography, diaries, memoir, letters, and the essay. Within its broad definition, literature includes non-fictional books, articles or other printed information on a particular subject. [3][4]

Etymologically, the term derives from Latin literatura/litteratura "learning, a writing, grammar," originally "writing formed with letters," from litera/littera "letter".[5] In spite of this, the term has also been applied to spoken or sung texts.[6][7] Developments in print technology have allowed an ever-growing distribution and proliferation of written works, which now includes electronic literature.

Literature is classified according to whether it is poetry, prose or drama, and such works are categorized according to historical periods, or their adherence to certain aesthetic features, or genre.

Explain the theme of “Bart Gets an F.”
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

"Bart Gets an 'F'" is the first episode of the second season of the American animated television series The Simpsons. It aired originally on the Fox network in the United States on October 11, 1990. In this episode, Bart Simpson fails four consecutive history exams, and the school psychiatrist recommends he repeat the fourth grade. Bart vows to do better and persuades the class genius, Martin Prince, to tutor him. After that backfires, Bart prays to God for help. At Springfield Elementary School, Bart presents a book report on Treasure Island. But during his presentation, it becomes obvious that he didn't read the book. Mrs. Krabappel scolds him for his falling test scores and warns him about an upcoming exam on Colonial America. At school the next day, Bart feigns illness to avoid taking another test. After grilling Milhouse for the test answers, an overconfident Bart scores even worse than he did when Mrs. Krabappel gives Bart a different set of test questions.
