How do I get an overview of literary genres? How do I know if a work is modernist or realist or whatever?

Please don't post pictures of Asian women; it's very distracting. White women are fine, just not Asian ones.

You shouldn’t even care

To understand what‘s literary you first have to know that there’s this thing invented by conmen called literary science, which is no science at all. They make up a bunch of types which they call categories they determine of common features and themes in multiple texts and in the time of these texts and give it a name.
It’s not actually like they what it means but they do it regardless.
They’re not actually wrong and such themes and times do and did exist, styles vary with time etcetera, all in some vaguely dialectic fashion, but you really shouldn’t take them seriously. For example many anons on here have studied or study literature. They’re all pseuds but I‘m still glad they at least study something.
To determine whether something is, for example, modernist or realist, or whatever, you can only need to know what those words mean and read the text yourself, see if something matches. You can also further learn what they think is realist or modernist, which works and features, and simply parrot, looking for matching shapes, circle in circle, square in square hole etc. This is what art students of any kind and literary students do.
I also suggest learn everything about a chap named Walter Benjamin. He’s rather important to them. “Das Kunstwerk im Zeitalter der technischen Reproduzierbarkeit” —and so on.
