Hello Kevin

When attempting to find information on your topic, I would suggest going to Ebscohost by logging into the Myers Library Online Page and going to our Online Library Databases page. Checkmark the boxes next to the following databases: Academic Search Premier, LiteratureMasterfile Premier  and then click continue to get the search box. Make sure that you go to the boxes below the search box and click on full-text and scholarly and peer-reveiwed check boxes. Then enter the terms : literature genres AND periods AND traditions   in the search box. I found 33 full-text articles when I conducted my search, and there were a few foreign language articles in the bunch, but you can just ignore those. Make sure you read the abstracts in order to choose the articles that work best for you.

You might also consider doing a search on Google Scholar for articles that would be useful to you relating to this topic. I have attached a link to an article that might be of use to you.

You might have a look at this scholarly article on Google Scholar
