Articles about Entertaiment
Entertainment is a broad concept that relates to amusement and enjoyment. It is often associated with aesthetic effect, but it can also serve a serious purpose – for example, a ceremonial performance or religious festival may be an entertainment of high culture. It can be social, as in group activities, games or sports; artistic – such as a story of Scheherazade (in the professional storytelling tradition) that inspired orchestral works by Rimsky-Korsakov, Ravel and Szymanowski; or sedentary – such as watching TV or playing computer games. Children’s play is an important form of entertainment that prepares them for adult responsibilities and social interaction (through dolls, pets and group games) or develops motor skills for music, sports and art.
