The Social Functions of Science Fictions BIS 384: Literary & Popular Genres Happy New Year!

what is this class about? genre

guiding questions Where do genres come from and why do they form? How and why do they change over time? How do categories work cognitively and how do genres work as categories? What is genre’s relationship with social context and how do the two interact? What is the relationship between convention and creativity?

genre in the OED etymology: F. genre kind: see gender. 1. a. Kind; sort; style. b. spec. A particular style or category of works of art; esp. a type of literary work characterized by a particular form, style, or purpose. 2. a. A style of painting in which scenes and subjects of ordinary life are depicted. b. attrib., as genre-painting, etc. Also transf., of music and literature.

how do categories work? Classic theory (Aristotle through Wittgenstein): categories are abstract containers things are in the same category if they have certain properties in common Prototype theory (Eleanor Rosch and the cognitive sciences) categories have best examples (i.e., prototypes)

genre in rhetorical genre theory Charles Bazerman: “Genre is only the visible realization of a complex of social and psychological dynamics.” Amy Devitt: “Genres develop [... ] because they respond appropriately to situations that writers encounter repeatedly.”

genre in rhetorical genre theory (cont.) John Frow: “[F]ar from being merely ‘stylistic’ devices, genres create effects of reality and truth, authority and plausibility, which are central to the different ways the world is understood [... ]” (2).

where do conventions come from? American Psychological Association (APA) citation format Wilcox, R. V. (1991). Shifting roles and synthetic women in Star trek: The next generation. Studies in Popular Culture, 13(2), Modern Language Association (MLA) citation format Wilcox, Rhonda V. "Shifting Roles and Synthetic Women in Star Trek: The Next Generation." Studies in Popular Culture 13.2 (1991):
