Critical Perceptions in Media - Genre

"A critical tool which helps us study texts and audience's responses to texts by dividing them into categories based on common elements"

Daniel Chandler (2001), states that the word genre comes from Latin, and means 'kind' or 'class'

"Genres are not systems, they are processes of systematization - genres evolve over time; they are dynamic"
- Steve Neale, 1995
