| | Western (genre) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Westerns are art works – films, literature, television and radio shows, sculpture (particularly that by Frederic Remington), and paintings – devoted to telling stories set in the American West (and sometimes Mexico), often | | | The western genre has been parodied on a number of occasions, famous examples being Support Your Local Sheriff, Cat Ballou, and Mel Brooks's Blazing Saddles. | | | This was primarily a semantic and structuralist approach to understanding how similar films convey meaning. |

| | Western world - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The anachronistic application of those terms to that division entails a stark logical contradiction, given that, when the term West appeared, it was used in opposition to the Greeks and Greek-speaking culture. | | | In this context both Latin America and the Philippines may be considered part of the West, particularly in writings on high art and literature. | | | Originally defined as Western Europe, most modern uses of the term refer to the societies of Europe and their close genealogical, linguistic, and philosophical colonial descendants, typically included are those countries whose dominant culture is derived from European culture. |
