This collection of new essays addresses a topic of established and
expanding critical interest throughout the humanities. It
demonstrates that genre matters in a manner not constrained by
disciplinary boundaries and includes new work on Genre Theory and
applications of thinking about genre from Aristotle to Derrida and
beyond. The essays focus on economies of expectation and
competency, genre as media form, recent developments in television
broadcast genres, translation and genericity, the role played by
genre in film publicity, gender and genre, genre in fiction, and
the problematics of classification. An introductory essay places
the contributions in the context of a wide range of thinking about
genre in the arts, media and humanities. The volume will be of
interest to both undergraduates and postgraduates, especially those
following courses on Genre Theory and Genre Criticism, and to
academics working in a range of subject areas such as Cultural
Studies, Film Studies, Media Studies and Literary Studies.
