What is an exposition?

An exposition is a piece of writing that aims to explain, describe or inform about a particular topic or issue at hand. It should aim to do so in a clear and concise manner, without assuming that the reader has any prior knowledge about the topic. Furthermore, because this form of text is non-fiction and has a very specific goal in mind, it has to be well-organized and structured in a more orderly format. Examples could include newsletters, manuals, pamphlets, reports and guidebooks.

No this isn't from wikipedia. Go check.
