It argues for the centrality of the macro-linguistic textual notion of hybrid genres to the understanding of the socio-cultural makeup of speaker-audience relations and dynamics. The adequateness and uniqueness of the Lebanese, and by extension, the Middle-Eastern context are more clearly evident in the overwhelming dominance of dogmatic discourses which, I argue, both trigger and aid the perpetual construction and reconstruction of ideologically susceptible audiences. Elements of these discourses such as religious, political, military and even literary blend in a unique way in public, normally political, speeches to produce a type of hybrid genre which helps construct constantly shifting audience roles with varying effective power. A pragmatic-stylistic analysis of the discourse of conflict, I propose, can help provide a starting point for understanding the complexity of the rhetorical situation in the region especially in the context of continuously rising extremism. %B Critical Discourse Studies %V 7 %P 191–201 %8 2010 %G eng %0 Book %D 2005 %T Internet Society: The Internet in Everyday Life %A Bakardjieva, Maria %K agency %K audience ethnography %K Bakhtin %K Feenberg %K little behavior genre %K Schutz %K social construction of technology %K use genre %K user %K Volosinov %I Sage %C London %8 2005 %G eng %0 Book Section %B The Dialogic Imagination: Four Essays %D 1981 %T Discourse in the Novel %A Bakhtin, M.

Ballantine %E N. Artemeva %X

Increasing numbers of autistic students are enrolling in universities worldwide. These students are taught by mostly nonautistic instructors who try to support them in their learning of academic literacies, without always fully understanding this emerging group of neurodiverse students. Most research on the development of academic literacies, including academic writing, to date has not explored the lived experience of being an autistic student at university. In this small-scale qualitative exploratory pilot study, we draw on Rhetorical Genre Studies (RGS) to probe into the accounts of 12 autistic students from two Canadian universities regarding their interactions with nonautistic and autistic individuals at university. By analyzing the data from the RGS perspective, we have been able to establish and unpack the rhetorical nature of such social interactions. Understanding the rhetorical nature of these interactions provides a first step towards developing effective supports for autistic students learning to speak and write academically in the predominantly nonautistic contexts of universities.

In this article, I compare Michel Foucault's (1994) author-function and Anis Bawarshi's (2000) genre function as explanations for the use, categorization, and value of scholarly webtexts. I focus much of my analysis on Anne Frances Wysocki's (2002) “A Bookling Monument” because it is explicitly designed to destabilize our reading practices. I also situate Wysocki's webtext along a spectrum with Charles Lowe's (2004) “Copyright, Access, and Digital Texts” and Collin Gifford Brooke's (2002) “Perspective: Notes Toward the Remediation of Style.” In using the author-function and the genre function as lenses on these pieces, I aim to articulate multiple possible modes of being for scholarly webtexts and their users. In the process, I illustrate the ways these concepts speak to the status and social function of authorial ownership and originality; multimodal complexity; and formal reflexivity. Ultimately, I argue that bringing traditional concepts like authorship and genre to bear on scholarly webtexts not only reveals the values of the Computers and Writing community but also presents a unique opportunity to continue testing the uses and limits of our rhetorical theories.

The definition of the appropriate form of communication is part of how a discipline constitutes itself, and is part of the achievement of that discipline. This paper examines the changing features of spectroscopic articles in Physical Review since its founding. Analyses of article length, use of references, sentence length and syntax, vocabulary, graphic features, organization and argument indicate that articles become increasingly theory-based and knowledge-embedded through time. Self-consciousness about the theoretical character of argument also increases. The changing character of communication within a scientific community also has implications for the social structure of that community. %B Social Studies of Science %V 14 %P 163–196 %8 1984 %G eng %0 Book %B Rhetoric of the Human Sciences %D 1988 %T Shaping Written Knowledge: The Genre and Activity of the Experimental Article in Science %A Bazerman, Charles %K genre %K science %B Rhetoric of the Human Sciences %I University of Wisconsin Press %C Madison, WI %8 1988 %G eng %0 Book Section %B Shaping Written Knowledge: The Genre and Activity of the Experimental Article in Science %D 1988 %T Reporting the Experiment: The Changing Account of Scientific Doings in the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society, 1665–1800 %A Bazerman, Charles %K change %K evolution %K genre %K science %B Shaping Written Knowledge: The Genre and Activity of the Experimental Article in Science %I University of Wisconsin Press %C Madison, WI %P 59–79 %8 1988 %G eng %0 Book Section %B Genre and the New Rhetoric %D 1994 %T Systems of Genres and the Enactment of Social Intentions %A Bazerman, Charles %E Freedman, Aviva %E Medway, Peter %K Edison %K genre %K kairos %K patents %K speech act %B Genre and the New Rhetoric %I Taylor and Francis %C London %P 79–101 %8 1994 %G eng %0 Book Section %B Constructing Experience %D 1994 %T Whose Moment?

Specifically, the data reveal 15 different writing roles assumed by members of the discourse community that depict a continuum from novice to expert writing behaviors. Writing roles were defined in relation to both the importance to community goals of the text to be written and to the amount of context-specific writing knowledge required to accomplish the task. The study applies the notion of legitimate peripheral participation in a discourse community and creates a framework for conceptualizing a social apprenticeship in writing either in school or nonschool settings. %B Written Communication %V 17 %P 185–223 %8 2000 %G eng %0 Book %D 1999 %T Writing in the Real World: Making the Transition from School to Work %A Beaufort, Anne %I Teachers College Press %C New York %G eng %0 Book %D 1994 %T The Ideology of Genre: A Comparative Study of Generic Instability %A Beebee, Thomas O. %K Althusser %K ars dictaminis %K Bakhtin %K Derrida %K evolution %K genre %K Jameson %K literature %K romance %K speech act %K Todorov %K use-value %K Western %I Pennsylvania State University Press %C University Park, PA %8 1994 %@ 0-271-02570-0 %G eng %0 Journal Article %J Bulletin of the American Society for Information Science and Technology %D 2001 %T The Concept of Genre and Its Characteristics %A Beghtol, Clare %K expectation %K genre %K information systems %K typology %B Bulletin of the American Society for Information Science and Technology %V 27 %P http://www.asis.org/Bulletin/Dec-01/beghtol.html %8 2001 %G eng %U http://www.asis.org/Bulletin/Dec-01/beghtol.html %0 Book %D 2005 %T Business and technical communication: an annotated guide to sources, skills, and samples %A Belanger, Sandra E. %I Praeger %C Westport, CT %G eng %0 Journal Article %J Technical Communication Quarterly %D 2000 %T Aristotle's pharmacy: The medical rhetoric of a clinical protocol in the drug development process %A Bell, Heather D. %A Walch, Kathleen A. %A Katz, Steven B. %B Technical Communication Quarterly %V 9 %P 249-269 %G eng %U http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/10572250009364699 %R 10.1080/10572250009364699 %0 Journal Article %J Communication Monographs %D 2000 %T Beyond Genre Theory: The Genesis of Rhetorical Action %A Benoit, William L. %K act %K Burke %K criticism %K genre %K political oratory %K scene %B Communication Monographs %V 67 %P 178–192 %8 2000 %G eng %0 Book Section %B Aspects of Oral Communication %D 1994 %T Reconstructive Genres of Everyday Communication %A Bergmann, Jörg R. %A Luckmann, Thomas %E Quasthoff, Uta %K genre %K gossip %K narrative %K social life %B Aspects of Oral Communication %I DeGruyter %C Berlin %P 289–304 %8 1994 %G eng %0 Journal Article %J Written Communication %D 2001 %T Genre Systems at Work: DSM-IV and Rhetorical Recontextualization in Psychotherapy Paperwork %A Berkenkotter, Carol %K activity theory %K genre %K system %B Written Communication %V 18 %P 326–349 %8 2001 %G eng %0 Journal Article %J Written Communication %D 1993 %T Rethinking Genre from a Sociocognitive Perspective %A Berkenkotter, Carol %A Huckin, Thomas N. %K activity theory %K discourse community %K situated cognition %K structuration theory %X This article argues for an activity-based theory of genre knowledge.

Generic knowledge plays an important role in the packing and unpacking of texts used in a
wide-ranging institutionalized socio-rhetorical context. If, on the one hand, it imposes constraints on an
uninitiated genre writer to conform to the conventions and rhetorical expectations of the relevant
professional community, on the other hand, it allows an experienced and established writer of the genre
to exploit conventions to create new forms to suit specific contexts. Unfortunately, however, this privilege
to exploit generic conventions to create new forms becomes available only to those few who enjoy a certain
degree of visibility in the relevant professional community; for a wide majority of others, it is more of a
matter of apprenticeship in accommodating the expectations of disciplinary cultures. This paper reviews
current research to investigate the way the power and the politics of genre is often exploited by the so-called
established membership of disciplinary communities to keep outsiders at a safe distance.

In this paper, I report the effects of explicitly teaching five technical genres to English first-language students enrolled in a multi-major technical writing course. Previous experimental research has demonstrated the efficacy of explicitly teaching academic writing to English first-language adults, but no comparable study on technical writing exists. I used a mixed-method approach to examine these effects, including a control-group quasi-experimental design and a qualitative analysis to more fully describe the 534 texts produced by 316 student writers. Results indicated the genre participants constructed texts demonstrating a significantly greater awareness to audience, purpose, structure, design, style, and editing than participants taught through more traditional approaches. Within the technical genres, participants demonstrated greater awareness to audience, purpose, and editing in the job materials text type than with correspondence or procedures text types.

This study takes a novel approach to the study of threatening communications by arguing that they can be characterized as a genre – a genre that generally carries strong connotations of intimidation, fear, aggression, power, and coercion. We combine the theoretical framework of Rhetorical Genre Studies (RGS) with results from theoretical and empirical analyses of threats to arrive at a more comprehensive perspective of threats. Since threats do not form part of any regular curriculum of genres, we designed a survey to test how recognizable they are. While scholars on threats describe threatening communications as remarkably varied in form and contextual features, the majority of our respondents categorized test items as threats without prompts of any kind, indicating that threats are a recognizable genre. We propose that threatening communications belong to a wider category of illicit genres: i.e. genres that generally disrupt and upset society and commonly affect their targets negatively. The uptakes of illicit genres are very different from those of other genres, as the users of the genres often actively avoid naming them, making uptake communities significant shapers of illicit genres. The present study contributes to research on threatening communications, since genre theory sheds light on important situational factors affecting the interpretation of a text as a threat – this is a particularly contentious question when it comes to threats that are indirectly phrased. The study also contributes to genre theory by pointing to new territory for genre scholars to examine, namely illicit genres. Studies of illicit genres also have wider, societal benefits as they shed light on different kinds of problematic rhetorical behavior that are generally considered destructive or even dangerous.

From the publisher's website:

"Media critics remain captivated by the modernist myth of the new: they assume that digital technologies such as the World Wide Web, virtual reality, and computer graphics must divorce themselves from earlier media for a new set of aesthetic and cultural principles. In this richly illustrated study, Jay David Bolter and Richard Grusin offer a theory of mediation for our digital age that challenges this assumption. They argue that new visual media achieve their cultural significance precisely by paying homage to, rivaling, and refashioning such earlier media as perspective painting, photography, film, and television. They call this process of refashioning "remediation," and they note that earlier media have also refashioned one another: photography remediated painting, film remediated stage production and photography, and television remediated film, vaudeville, and radio."

Genre is a concept used in film studies and film theory to describe similarities between groups of films based on aesthetic or broader social, institutional, cultural, and psychological aspects. Film genre shares similarities in form and style, theme, and communicative function. A film genre is thus based on a set of conventions that influence both the production of individual works within that genre and audience expectations and experiences. Genres are used by industry in the production and marketing of films, by film analysts and critics in historic analysis of film, and as a framework for audiences in the selection and experience of films.

We derive from genre literature the idea that radicals, that is root characteristics, of presentation exist in computer-mediated environments and define important aspects of conversation via such media. We propose three radicals of presentation that revolve around speaker-audience relations and identify areas of concern for communicators engaging in persistent, online conversations: visibility, addressing, primarily speakers' concerns with the means; methods and opportunites for self-presentation; relation, addressing the speaker's concerns with the range and identity of the audience, and audience members' concerns about relations with each other; and co-presence, addressing concerns relating to the temporal, virtual, and/or physical co-presence of speaking and listening participants. %B New Media & Society %V 5 %P 117–140 %8 2003 %G eng %U ://000181358700006 %!

We examine the rhetorical activity employed within software development communities in code texts. For technical communicators, the rhetoricity of code is crucial for the development of more effective code and documentation. When we understand that code is a collection of rhetorical decisions about how to engage those machinic processes, we can better attend to the significance and nuance of those decisions and their impact on potential user activities.

This paper reports a corpus investigation of the Methods sections of research-reporting articles in academic journals. In published pedagogic materials, Swales and Feak [Swales, J. M., & Feak, C. (1994). Academic writing for graduate students. Ann Arbor: University of Michigan Press; Swales, J. M., & Feak, C. (2000). English in today's research world. Ann Arbor: University of Michigan Press.], while not offering a generic structure, discuss the tendencies for Methods sections reporting research in the social sciences to be slow (or extended), and those in the physical sciences, such as medicine and engineering, to be fast (or compressed) – the metaphors of speed or density relating to the degree of elaboration employed in describing and justifying the research design and process. The aim of this study is to examine the differences between fast and slow tendencies in Methods sections in terms of their internal, cognitive discourse organization. Two small corpora, each consisting of thirty Methods sections (one for each of the two groups of subjects), are analyzed in two ways. First the corpora are rater-analyzed for their use of the organizational features of a cognitive genre model for textual structures (see Bruce, I. J. (2005). Syllabus design for general EAP courses: a cognitive approach. Journal of English for Academic Purposes, 4(3), 239–256.) and secondly by the use of corpus software for linguistic features that characterize the model. The findings of the study suggest that ‘fast’ Methods sections that report research in the physical sciences generally employ a means-focused discourse structure, and ‘slow’ Methods sections in social science reports tend to employ a combination of chronological and non-sequential descriptive structures. The study concludes that learner writers may benefit from access to the types of general, procedural knowledge that these discoursal structures employ.
