pastichový

Pastiche is an artistic work in a style that imitates that of another work, artist, or period. The term pastiche is often used in visual art, literature, and music. In literature, pastiche is a literary composition in a given style, upon a given subject, or in the manner of a given author. It is a literary technique that imitates the style of a previous writer or work.

In music, pastiche refers to a composition that imitates the style of a previous composer or era. It can also refer to a medley of popular tunes. In visual art, pastiche is the imitation of the style of a previous artist or period. It can be done in a way that is respectful of the original work, or it can be done in a way that is satirical or parodic.

Pastiche is not to be confused with plagiarism, which is the act of stealing someone else's work and presenting it as one's own. Pastiche is a form of homage or tribute, and it is generally understood to be a legitimate artistic practice. While pastiche can be seen as a form of imitation, it is often used to create something new and original. Artists may use pastiche to explore different styles, to comment on existing works, or to create a sense of nostalgia. The term itself derives from the Italian word "pasticcio," which originally referred to a type of meat pie.
