Is there a convenient document that explains the various genre of Psalms in the Psalms explorer? It's nice having them categorized, but it would be nice to know the criteria.
Since Psalms Explorer was internally created, FL may have something internal. However, if you hover over each Psalm, a pop-up provides more detail about how the Genre assignment is supported.
Also see documentation under About.
Thanks - unfortunately, the About panel doesn't explain their paradigm for genre, only that they categorized the Psalms using Gunkel's form criticism plus other resources.
All I'm looking for is the definition of their terms: lament, praise, hymn, etc.
I do realize that I can look in the OED for a definition of those terms, but that doesn't mean that Logos used those definitions precisely.
I also realize that they didn't simply run an algorithm, but thought about each Psalm individually.
But, they clearly applied certain criteria to each Psalm to categorize it. I'm looking for those criteria, such as they are.
