Find quotes on Genre Theory
Steve Neal:
'Genre is a repetition with an underlying pattern of variations' or more simply referred to as repetition with variety, he is essentially saying that genres are a set of rules that can be used repeatedly but with some differences to make it original.
Steve argues that 'pleasure is derived from repetition and difference', which means doing something you like time and time again will keep you happy as long as you are doing that good thing and having different events occur, making it a new experience.
Daniel Chandler:
Genre is defined by the conventions that various texts share that are considered as the same "genre".
John Hartley:
The same text can be part of several genres. This is supported by the existence of sub-genres and/or hybrid genres.
David Buckingham:
'Genre isn't simply given by the culture; its more like a constant process of negotiation and change.' This is David basically saying that genre is something that isn't set by a culture, its used as a base with room for compromise.
This is supported by Tom Ryall's quote that states; 'Genre provides a framework of structuring rules, in the shape of patterns which act as a form of "supervision" over the work of production of filmmakers and the wok of reading by the audience.'
