Abstract:

This volume explores genres in Web-mediated communication in a
discourse-analytical perspective, focusing in particular on genre change and
evolution under the pressure of technological renewal, the availability of new
affordances, and the consequent emergence of new generic conventions that
challenge traditional genre theory. The chapters are organised in an ideal
progression from websites and more "traditional" Web applications to Web 2.0
communicative platforms, characterised as they are by user participation and
user-generated content, focusing in the final section on blogging and
microblogging as the applications that are most representative of the
properties of the new platforms. In all chapters the starting point is an
awareness of the need to renew or adapt existing analytical tools to make them
applicable to the new objects of investigation.
