Composition (language)
Résumé
The term composition (from Latin com- "with" and ponere "to place") as it refers to writing, can describe authors' decisions about, processes for designing, and sometimes the final product of, a composed linguistic work. In original use, it tended to describe practices concerning the development of oratorical performances, and eventually essays, narratives, or genres of imaginative literature, but since the mid-20th century emergence of the field of composition studies, its use has broadened to apply to any composed work: print or digital, alphanumeric or multimodal. As such, the composition of linguistic works goes beyond the exclusivity of written and oral documents to visual and digital arenas.
Theoretical and applied studies in narratology, rhetoric, and composition studies have identified elements like the following as relevant to processes of composing language. This list is neither exclusive nor sequential:
Goal, the desired aims or objectives to be achieved by the end of composition
Outline, the organisations of thoughts and/or ideas which is used to determine organisational technique
Plot, the course or arrangement of events
Theme, the unifying subject or idea
Dialogue, a reciprocal conversation between two or more persons
Characterisation, the process of creating characters
Setting, the time and location in which the composition takes place
Description, definitions of things in the composition
Style, specifically, the linguistic style of the composition
Setting tone or mood, conveying one or more emotions or feelings through words
Voice, the individual writing style of the author
Tone, which encompasses the attitudes toward the subject and toward the audience
Justification, or reasoning in support of the topic
Arrangement, strategic use of written, oral, visual and/or digital to inform, persuade, or motivate an audience in a given situation.
