Refers to the types and styles of all works of art, and its artistic structure has a certain stable form in history, which is developed with the diversity of art reflecting reality and the aesthetic tasks put forward by artists in works. In China ancient literature, genre refers to the style and rhetoric of poetry.

A Concise Aesthetic Dictionary by Orff Senikov of the former Soviet Union: Genre represents a concept of internal classification of art, and because genre is formed in various arts, this concept has general aesthetic properties. In each genre, we can see some * * * identical contents (the particularity of life connection and relationship) and some * * * identical orientations, the choice of life phenomena and their artistic expression, ideological aesthetic evaluation and infection characteristics. Each school has a set of relatively stable artistic means, which is the unique identification symbol of this school. These artistic means are essentially derived, because they are restricted by the unique reflection objects of various schools. Genre is related to all aspects of artistic image structure, first of all, it is related to theme, plot and layout. All elements of genre (its external and material symbols) can be classified as art forms, but it embodies the overall unity of content and form.

Genre is also a historical category, and the realistic artistic movement can only be realized through genre. The rise, development and evolution of genre are restricted by historical environment. Genre also reflects the characteristics of the times, people's way of life and behavior. Each era has its own genre, and the sum of various genres reflects the overall artistic style of that era. Although genre movement is ultimately restricted by the field of social relations, it also has its relative independence and internal development logic. Genre reflects various stable tendencies in the process of artistic development, and embodies the characteristics and unity of artistic process. Genre forms are always in a dynamic evolution process, influenced by artists' expression methods, artistic styles and world views. Through the choice of genre and the active and changeable genre form, we can see the general appearance of an artist's life, thought and aesthetic set. The classification of genre forms reflects the tendency to see the complexity of separation and integration The tendency to seek points indicates the emergence of various art categories and new schools within categories, while the tendency to seek unity reflects the interconnection and similarity characteristics of various school forms.
