What does the term "prose" mean in writing?

2007-03-01 11:39:15 · 4 answers · asked by Kiara 5 in Arts & Humanities Books & Authors

So, is a prose a good piece of writing or a bad piece, or does it all depend on the prose? Please be more explanatory.

it is not poetry, basically. It is writing without a rythm or meter or rhyme used in poetry, more like how you would really say things
I now am writing prose.
This means that it can does not have to be high writing
however Mark twain also wrote prose, so did Oscar Wilde, or Charlotte Bronte
It can be both.

Literally speaking, a prose is a narrative style of writing things descriptively and uniquely, in other words, the prose writer would do his best regarding how and why he wants to expose his 'message' to the readers and the world.

Basically everything that isn't a poem.

Or more speficially "ordinary" writing without any sort of outlined rhythm or structure.
