Reading Review Texts
To critisize an art work or event for a public audience. Such work of art include movies, TV shows, books, plays, operas, recondings, exhibitions, concerts, and ballets.
Generic Structure :
- Orientation :
- places the works in its general and particular context, often by comparing it to others of its kind or through analogue with a non-art object or event.
- Interporetive recount :
- summeries the plot and/or provides an account of how the reviewed rendition of the work came into being; is optional, but if present, often recursive.
- Evaluation :
- provides an evaluation of the work and/or its performance or production; is usually recursive.
- Evaluative summation :
- provides a kind of punch line which sums up the reviewer's opinion of the art event as a whole; is optional.
The orientation is typically provided by the reviewer while the interpretive recount and evaluation can be provided by the reviewer, and optionally a source (that is, someone who participated in the creation and/or performance of the work). The evaluative summation is provided by the reviewer.
- Focus on particular participants.
- Direct expression of opinions through the use of attitudinal ephitets in nominal groups; qualitative attributes, and affective mental processes.
- Use elaborating and extending clause and group complexes to package the information.
- Use of metaphorical language (e.g, The wit was there, dexteroustly pingponged to and fro...).
