Abstract:
The presents book departs from an observation made by a group of scholars at
Aarhus University: On the one hand, the concept of genre is present in and
pivotal for a number of different disciplines studying texts such as literary
studies, analytical text linguistics and the investigation of text production
in professional settings. On the other hand, and interestingly, each of these
disciplines tends to have developed its own theoretical tools and basic
assumptions, without taking into account the results and insights achieved in
the neighbouring fields. The present work is intended to overcome this state
of affairs. It is based upon a series of seminars involving scholars from the
mentioned fields. Questions that emerged from the interdisciplinary
discussions of the group and that are treated across the different
contributions include the following: What is the relation between genre, text
production and situation? To what extent is the situation or the function the
overarching factor in characterising and distinguishing genres? How do genres
develop and acquire new textual characteristics? How does the specificity of
the represented genres surface in text and context? The result is an inquiry
into problems with relevance across disciplines, where contributions from each
field intend to also reflect aspects traditionally treated in the other
fields.
