Didacticism
Didacticism is an artistic philosophy that emphasizes instructional and informative qualities in
literature and other types of
art. Didactic art should not primarily "
entertain" or pursue the subjective goals of the artist.An example may be found in
Alexander Pope's
An Essay on Criticism, which offers a range of criticism and advice.The term "didactic" also refers to texts (and by extension, media, such as film or television) that are overburdened with instructive, factual, and/or otherwise "educational" information, sometimes to the detriment of a reader's (or viewer's) enjoyment. The opposite of "didactic" is "non-didactic." If a writer is more concerned with artistic qualities and techniques than with conveying a message, then that piece of work is considered to be non-didactic, even if it is instructive/educational.
