Abstract:

What is a genre? How do genres differ between cultures and languages? How do
generic texts get translated, and how does the specific genre affect the act
of translation? This Element surveys the concept of genre itself, a number of
different genres, and what happens to these genres through translation, while
also providing an overview of research into these topics along with
research-based approaches for translating work that can perhaps be labelled as
generic.
