In book publishing, an anthology is a collection of literary works chosen by the compiler; it may be a collection of plays, poems, short stories, songs, or related fiction/non-fiction excerpts by different authors. There are also thematic and genre-based anthologies. [1]
An anthology, literally "a garland" or "collection of flowers", is a collection of literary works, originally of poems. This category should hold only articles about anthologies which are of broad scope and generally non-fiction and non-literary, or are mixed works (fiction, poetry, etc.) which are mixed with non-fiction works (speeches, essays, etc.)

According to Alastair Fowler, the following elements can define genres: organizational features (chapters, acts, scenes, stanzas); length; mood; style; the reader's role (e.g., in mystery works, readers are expected to interpret evidence); and the author's reason for writing (an epithalamion is a poem composed for marriage).
