The Japanese developed new forms of drama and literature such as Noh, Kabuki, and Haiku poetry. Noh is a traditional form of theater with masked actors, Kabuki is more colorful and dramatic with elaborate costumes and makeup, and Haiku is a form of poetry with a specific structure and focus on nature.

During the classical time period, new literary forms developed such as epic poetry (e.g. Homer's "Iliad" and "Odyssey"), drama (e.g. Greek tragedies and comedies), and philosophical dialogues (e.g. Plato's works). These forms helped shape the foundation of Western literature and continue to influence storytelling today.
Three unique forms of literature or drama created by the Japanese are haiku poetry, Noh theater, and manga. Haiku are traditional Japanese poems consisting of three lines with a 5-7-5 syllable structure. Noh theater is a traditional form of Japanese theater combining drama, music, and dance. Manga refers to Japanese comic books or graphic novels with a distinctive art style.

This predates the novel by about a millennium. Earliest Forms of Literature The earliest Western literature was, as far as is known, the epic, followed by drama. It is believed that the lyric is also one of the earliest forms, too.

Some branches of literature include poetry, fiction, drama, and non-fiction. These branches encompass various genres and forms of literary expression, allowing for a wide range of creative exploration and storytelling. Each branch offers unique opportunities for writers to convey their ideas, emotions, and perspectives to readers.
