GENRE THEORY, SPEECH ACT THEORY, STYLE, & PEER WRITING TUTORING

GENRE

Genre is a category that describes the relation of the social purpose of text to language structure (Cope & Kalantzis, 1993, p. 2)

Genres are social processes. Texts are patterned in reasonably predictable ways according to patterns of social interaction in a particular culture. Social patterning and textual patterning meet as genres. Genres are textual interventions in society (Cope & Kalantzis, 1993, p. 7)
