  French Literature - LoveToKnow 1911
The other, one of the most remarkable developments of sportive literature which the world has seen, produced the second indigenous literary growth of which France can boast, namely, the fabliaux, and the almost more remarkable work which is an immense conglomerate' of fabliaux, the great beast-epic of the Roman de Renart.
Side by side with these two forms of literature, the epics and romances of the higher classes, and the fabliau, which, at least in its original, represented rather the feelings of the lower, there grew up a third kind, consisting of purely lyrical poetry.
The novelty is in the application of prose to such a purpose, and in the crispness, the fluency and the elegance of the prose used.

 Literary Studies Terminology
One of the first things students in a literature class must do is understand that everyone can learn to dissect a work of writing but that it takes time, patience, and experience.
Even the idea of literature can be seen as a reading and thinking puzzle, in part because there are multiple definitions of the word literature.
For our purposes, we will define literature as writing of high merit, whether imaginative or objective, or the performance of such writing, especially as the elements work together in the piece to achieve one unified point.
