Description | Due to mainly a lack of sufficient research - especially previous to Montaigne (1533-1592) and Bacon (1561-1626), the apparent innovators of the literary form of the Essay - quite a few misconceptions regarding this literary genre still prevail.Not only is the Essay as such often confused with the essay qua “Aufsatz” , but also because of its typical characteristics of “playing” with fact(s) in the literary arena, the literary Essay is blindly branded as a "mixed-genre", a label which is also attributed to its mosaic-like form. Contrary to the general trend, this study concerns the Essay as an “independent" Hterary prose-genre, with its own characteristics. | |
