Characteristic Features of Genres
Text Structure
- See work on Formal and Content Schemata (Carrell & Eisterhold, 1983)
- (General Text Structures) Hinds (1982, 1983), Winter (1994), Hoey (1994), ...
- (Specific Text Structures) Weissberg (1984), Swales (1990), Bhatia (1993), …
... So a GENRE has been seen as something more than just a TEXT TYPE.
