Using the genre perspective, we studied the electronic communication of knowledge users collaborating on a movie community and found that their work and interactions were mediated by the use of genres. Drawing on these findings, we develop the concept of genre repertoire to designate the set of genres enacted by groups, organizations, or communities to accomplish their work. Automatic discourse classification according to genre in social information sharing, transfer and knowledge communication provides a higher level of service quality. By investigating user behavior in movie community, the relationship between intertextuality of discourse genre and user behavior was studied. We denoted genre by using vector, and discourse genre intertextuality intensity is measured with vector distance. And for those discourse which genre is unknown, genre intertextuality is calculated using user behavior. The results show that user various behaviors stickiness in movie community and discourse genre intertextuality intensity have potential common features.

Full textAbstract:
One key limitation with the contemporary online gaming research literature is that much of the published research has tended to examine only one genre of games (i.e., Massively Multi-player Online Role Playing Games). Three relatively little studied online games are First Person Shooter (FPS) Games, Role Play Games (RPG), and Real Time Strategy (RTS) Games. Therefore, the current study examines player behaviour and characteristics in these three relatively under-researched online gaming genres. The study examines the differences between the three different game genres in terms of: (i) the demographic profile of players, (ii) the social interactions of players including the number and quality of friends, and how gaming related to real life friendship, and (iii) motivations to play specific game genres. The sample comprised 353 self-selected players. The RPG genre had the highest percentage of female players. The number of hours played per week varied significantly between the genres. RPG players played significantly longer hours than FPS or RTS players. In relation to playing motivation, achievement levels were highest for the FPS genre with RPG genre having the lowest achievement levels. RPG players had the highest immersion levels. RTS players were significantly less likely to report having made friends than players of the other two genres.

Full textAbstract:
This corpus-based study focuses on the nine English central modal verbs (can, could, will, would, may, might, shall, should, and must) across the two chosen genres of the COCA corpus – Spoken and Academic genres, which show the greatest number of differences in terms of genre characteristics, such as formality or intended audience. Because research on modal verbs across genres, especially one inclusive of the spoken genre, is limited, this study investigates these two genres to test the hypothesis that the general genre characteristics influence the choice of modal verbs. As a result, the distribution of modal verbs across the different genres differs too. The results suggest that genre can indeed be indicative of the frequency and use of modal verbs, which may be ascribed to two language processes colloquialization and democratization.

This corpus based research provides insight how the text of same genre differentiates from each other and how intra genres variations take place. This study highlights the functional variations exist in two different genres of literature (drama and novel) of 19th and 20th centuries on the basis of analysis conducted on the texts of both genres by using software MAT. The texts of both of the genres are analysed on different five dimensions given by Biber and some major and minor variations are observed that both the texts differ at different dimensions. The intra genre and inter genre comparisons have been done which gives some interesting findings and results. This study further highlights the specific features of both of the genres which are the hallmark of these two very genres (novel and drama) of 19th and 20th centuries. This present research is concluded on very interesting findings which may pave the ways for further research in this arena.

Full textAbstract:
This is the second article in a cycle on the connection between genre studies and linguistics. The previous article discussed the question “What have genre studies given to linguistics?” This article focuses on linguistic methods used in speech genres theory: more traditional for linguistics, starting with the descriptive method and its later varieties – structural – and less traditional (component analysis, the method of immediate constituents, the generative method, the method of describing external and deep content structures, the method of semantic fields). Speech genres theory is studied in relation to linguistic paradigms. The most significant for speech genres theory is the turn in linguistics from the study of the language only to the study of speech (discourse), and thus – the recognition of the presence of a specific systematic nature of speech. Besides, speech genres theory is analyzed in connection with traditional linguistic directions: syntactic theory and methodology are used in the study of the composition of speech genres, lexicology and semantics – in the study of the names of speech genres. The major focus is on the modern period when new areas of linguistics and speech genres theory emerge simultaneously (Internet linguistics and Internet genre studies). The article also discusses division of linguistic disciplines in connection both with the speech genre division of language (structural, diachronic, functional) and with the division of genre studies (structure of the speech genres, classification of speech genres, sociology of speech genres, psychology of speech genres and genre thinking, cognitive and culturological aspects of speech genres). The role of speech genres theory in the division of linguistic disciplines into deductive and inductive is also discussed. The article appreciates the role of several outstanding linguists in the development of speech genres theory. In addition, the author briefly touches upon the connection between genre studies and literary studies: in the study of literary texts and genres they converge.

The article is striving to describe one of the genres of advertising discourse - the advertising of elite brand goods in Instagram - through the theory of speech genres. The study is based on the following principles of the theory: all communication phenomena can be described through their primary or secondary nature; any speech genre has a field structure. A field consists of a core represented by features opposing this genre to other genres, and periphery represented by shared features. Field features of a genre are represented by language units of different levels grouped around some invariant content which depends on the topic and aim of communication. We have built a field model of speech genre of advertising of elite brand goods in Instagram, where the core features are word-play, highly expressive vocabulary and allusions which all aim to create positive image of elite goods. The field periphery has been split into closer periphery (common for all e-advertising) and farther periphery (represented by features common for advertising in general). The features of closer periphery are instant, ubiquitous and interactive nature. The features of farther periphery are informative and evaluative character, inducement and creolized nature.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this study is to focus on a genre which has been rarely covered in previous podcast studies. In order to explore the relevance between podcast popular genre trends and social issues, monthly top 100 ranked channels from 2020 to 2021 were converted into genre according to Rank sum weighting method. As a result, the most popular genres of podcast were current affairs, entertainment, economy and cultural information in order, and these genres have ‘pair’ phenomena between close rankings. Among the genres, ‘current affairs & entertainment’ and ‘economy & cultural information’ have substitutive relationships respectively. Especially, despite the different content objectives between current affairs and entertainment, it can be inferred entertainment content could be consumed as a substitute for current affairs in Korea. In addition, genres of current affairs and entertainment had actually a high volume in listening frequency when relevant issues emerged when checking the social mood using Google keyword data. This means that the listening pattern of podcast genres had a corresponding relationship with the social mood for certain time.

Full textAbstract:
The article focuses on the topic of genre formation in Soviet journalism, and how genres have developed in the contemporary Russian mass media. The author is of the view that journalistic genres developed intuitively, rather than on the basis of a thorough investigation of the typology of mass media texts, and therefore bear all the hallmarks of a professional agreement. These practical, formally logical standards have no basis in scholarship, and as a result many publications dealing with questions of journalistic genres have no connection with the theory of journalism. They merely serve the «commonly accepted professional view» of the form that texts should take. This explains why there is continual discussion of the interaction, diffusion, mimicry and changes in the «identified genres» in a situation where there are no grounds for distinguishing between them, or fixed criteria for defining them. Introducing American forms of journalistic texts into the Russian genre system leads to an even greater entropy of established concepts. Concentrating on the study of the genre forms of journalistic texts in journalism education often hinders students in the acquisition of the habit of writing materials on specific thematic issues.

Full textAbstract:
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.

Full textAbstract:
Globalisation has produced not only denser, but also linguistically more complex communication networks. Multilingual practices have transformed the academic and professional lives of language learners, and imposed new requirements on LSP teaching. This article foregrounds genres in multilingual globalised contexts. Genres have been recognised as one of the key focuses of LSP. Although previous research highlighted the importance of developing relevant field-specific genre practices, little attention has been paid to the nature of genre repertoires in the field of International Relations (IR). We report on the findings of a qualitative study into genre practices of the IR community. We set out to examine the typical genres of IR in academic and in professional settings. We focus on the languages in which these genres are enacted, and on the transformation of genre practices that occurs as a result of the community members’ trajectories through different academic and professional or institutional contexts. The analysis of genre collections and of the data collected through semi-structured interviews with IR students, professors, and graduates, reveals the rich, diverse, and asymmetrical patterns of genre use in three languages: French, Slovene, and English. The study suggests that the informants’ disciplinary communication has changed considerably over the past twenty years, and that the changes in the genre ecologies require new approaches to teaching about genres. Based on the findings of the study, the paper discusses the challenges of multilingual realities for LSP teachers and genre analysts.

Kajian ini bertujuan mendeskripsi capaian genre tulis oleh pembelajar sekolah (SD, SMP, SMA) di Sumatera Utara (selanjutnya dirujuk sebagai pembelajar SU) dan mengajukan model pembelajaran berdasarkan genre-based language learning yang sejalan dengan Kurikulum 2013. Desain penelitian adalah deskriptif kualitatif. Sumber data adalah 1025 pembelajar dan 18 orang guru, yang terdiri atas guru SD, SMP, dan SMA serta orang tua pembelajar dari sekolah-sekolah itu. Data kajian ini ialah teks atau genre yang ditulis pembelajar SU, deskripsi pembelajaran genre di kelas, dan transkripsi wawancara dengan guru dan orang tua. Teks yang ditulis pembelajar dianalisis dengan menggunakan teori linguistik fungsional sistemik (LFS). Temuan penelitian adalah pertama, pembelajar SU telah memeroleh dan mampu menulis 10 jenis genre tunggal, yakni deskripsi, laporan, recount, narasi, anekdot, exemplum, observasi, prosedur, eksposisi, dan diskusi dan mereka mampu menulis genre majemuk. Kedua, ditemukan bahwa sebagian unsur konteks sosial persekolahan berupa keterbatasan pengetahuan dan ketrampilan guru tentang genre dan pembelajaran berbasis teks telah menjadi penghambat dalam pembelajaran menulis genre. Ketiga, berkaitan dengan itu model pembelajaran genre dapat dikembangkan. Model pembelajaran genre tulis yang dikembangkan merupakan gabungan dari genre-based language learning dan pendekatan ilmiah yang menjadi ciri utama Kurikulum 2013. Model ini efektif untuk pembelajaran genre tulis.The objectives of the study are to describe writting genres acquired by primary school (SD), junior school (SMP) and high school (SMA) learners in North Sumatera province (referred to as SU learners) and to propose a genre-based language learning model in accordance with the 2013 Curriculum. This study is a qualitative one. The subjects are 1025 learners, 18 teachers (SD, SMP, and SMA teachers), and school learners parents. The data are written texts or written genre composed by the SU learners, descriptions of genre learning in the classroom, teachers and parents interview transcriptions. The written genres by the learners are analyzed by using systemic functional linguistics (SFL) theories. The findings show that firstly, the SU learners have already acquired and been able to write ten kinds of basic genres, namely description, report, recount, narrative, anecdote, exemplum, observation, procedure, exposition, and discussion. Furthermore, the SU learnes have mastered multiple genres. Secondly, some school social context elements, such as the lack of teachers competence and skill on genres and text-based learning become obstacles for writing genre teaching. Thirdly, related to the acquired genres by the learners and obstacles from the school context, a model for genre learning is developed. The developed writing genre learning is a combination of the genre-based language learning and scientific approach as main characteristic of the 2013 Curriculum. The learning model is effective for writting genre learning.

Full textAbstract:
The article defines the methodological problems of constructing a model of the speech genre and suggests the way of solving them. The existing models of Text – Text components – Genre type are recognized as the main tool for the study and description of speech genres. It is argued that the speech genre description methodology in modern linguistics should be focused on the ideas of systematic construction. The principles of text analysis in the aspect of speech genre studies are determined and some errors of scientifically employed approaches are identified. The elimination of these errors will allow genre studies to shift to a new methodological principle of constructing a genre model that has a diagnostic potential. The current problematic issues of genre studies are formulated. As a productive technology for describing a speech genre, we propose a universal method of functional modelling, which will enable designing genres and their modules on the basis of regularity, obligation, and oppositional character. In order to solve the problem of genre description in the attributive aspect, that is, to determine its units, it is productive to analyze the genre applying the so-called communicative semiotic model, as well as the method of transformational-and-oppositional analysis. The proposed principle of genre description is postulated as a method of objective modelling. Thus, within the framework of this study, the analysis of the theoretical problems of modern genre studies is carried out, the objectives of speech genres investigation are formulated and the approaches to their achieving are presented in an overview.

Modern linguistics is characterized by the establishment and formation of a new promising direction, based on anthropocentric theory of speech genres (TSG). The popularity of this direction lies in the interest of the scientists in the phenomenon of virtual communication, which has a certain structure and differs in mechanisms of influence on the social content. The multidimensionality and richness of genre forms determine the need for a diverse approach to the study of speech genres in modern genology. The aim of the article is to study and analyze the theory of speech genres in modern linguistics. The author presents the basic theoretical foundations of the study of the theory of speech genres. Taking into account the achievements of modern studies, the concept of speech genres is analyzed, features and functions of the visual elements of the speech genre are described. It is proved that the modern speech genre and its variety the virtual speech genre are an informational and communicative environment in which there is a certain styling, sphere of communication, speech behavior. The speech genre and the virtual speech genre belong to the written communication and rely on the fullest use of lexical, grammatical, graphic, and media means of speech, which foresees certain adjustments, as well as it differs by the form of dialogue and monologue.

This paper develops a method to quantify the evolution of music and understand the role of humans in the evolution of music. First, a directional music influence network was set to show the parameters of "music influence". Then, a sub-network of the direct influencer network was established to obtain influence relationships, and "musical influence" was described and stored in this sub-network. Finally, a music similarity test model is used to compare which is more similar between artists of the same genre and artists of different genres. By comparing the influence and similarity between genres, the difference and connection of genres was got. Analyze whether "influencers" can actually influence their artists and their music through the above-mentioned similarity data. Then analyze the influence of music characteristics. Identify features representing major evolutions in the development of music from the data and get influencers in the network that represent major evolutions; analyze the evolution of a musical genre over time and explain how the genre or artist has changed over time; and illustrate how the model Express the social, political or technological change at the time.

Full textAbstract:
This paper presents a case for a genre-based approach to research into online communication. Questions about the appropriateness and extensiveness of research-based guidelines for communicating online exist. These questions include the appropriateness of transferring guidelines from research on print communication online without first re-verifying them, the appropriateness of generalizing conclusions from context-based, small sample-sized usabilty studies, the extent of generalizability of empirical studies, and the limited scope of guidelines that focus almost exclusively on physical features of text. Genre – ‘a familiar pattern, a way of organizing information that has become so common that readers will probably recognize each new instance as belonging to the genre’ (Price & Price, 2002:272) – provides an alternative, contextually-based approach. It is a useful context because most online communication occurs within the confines of a specific genre and, as genres become more common, users develop expectations about the type of content presented and the format of its presentation. Three methods can help researchers understand the nature of online genres: (1) discourse analysis helps researchers identify the features of a genre, (2) usability studies help researchers assess whether the features promote effective user performance (and, if so, how), and (3) design team research identifies why features were included and which other alternatives were considered, rejected, and why. An effective study of genre uses all three. Focusing on genre, too, allows researchers within sub-disciplines of communication to focus their work on their areas of specialty.

Abstract This article suggests that one of the understudied and substantive ways in which actors produce and transform social hierarchies and classifications is by aligning and mis-aligning genres. Alignments within and across genres have furnished methods for construing and evaluating qualities of people – as examples, the genre repertoires of job applications or promotion dossiers. A fine attunement to new and emergent semiotic alignments via genres can also reveal how people are engaging with social and technological transformations. To study this, we advocate turning to four focal points: shifting genre hierarchies, stabilizing genres, cross-genre identities, and empty genres.

Full textAbstract:
The article reflects the scientific fate of the main genre model – the “questionnaire of the speech genre” of T. V. Shmeleva. The author discusses the reasons for the high demand for the “questionnaire” in genre studies: the parameters of the “questionnaire” affect the most important aspects, the “pain points” of the genre; the formal simplicity and consistency of the “questionnaire”. Along with the advantages and achievements (the article gives their brief description), the author points to a few critical issues concerning the “questionnaire”: the lack of items of the “questionnaire” (the juxtaposition of primary and secondary speech genres, direct and indirect speech genres, speech and rhetorical genres, cultural characteristics of speech genres, etc. are not presented in it) and its crucial points which are not commonly recognized, i.e. the ranking points of the “questionnaire”. In relation to modern genre studies, the article deals with the items that either should be or can be, or have already been added to the “questionnaire”, as well as the theoretical justification of their relations, which, according to the author of the article, will allow to clarify some other items of the “questionnaire”. The emphasis is on those points that are less spelled out in the “canonical” “questionnaire”, but that should be used for a more adequate study of genres (especially new ones), and are already actually used. The discussion focuses on the following points: typological, including the stadial-typological and historical-etymological, features of speech genres; determination of the place of the genre in the structural-hierarchical typology; cultural, linguistic and linguocultural characteristics of speech genres; characteristics of the communicative concept, through which the genre is presented and interpreted, and its components; the ability of the genre to form its variants; corpus and quantitative characteristics of speech genre; online genres.

Full textAbstract:
Writing and genre scholarship has become increasingly attuned to how various nontextual features of written genres contribute to the kinds of social actions that the genres perform and to the activities that they mediate. Even though scholars have proposed different ways to account for nontextual features of genres, such attempts often remain undertheorized. By bringing together Writing, Activity, and Genre Research, and Multimodal Interaction Analysis, the authors propose a conceptual framework for multimodal activity-based analysis of genres, or Multimodal Writing, Activity, and Genre (MWAG) analysis. Furthermore, by drawing on previous studies of the laboratory notebook (lab book) genre, the article discusses the rhetorical action the genre performs and its role in mediating knowledge construction activities in science. The authors provide an illustrative example of the MWAG analysis of an emergent scientist’s lab book and discuss its contributions to his increasing participation in medical physics. The study contributes to the development of a theoretically informed analytical framework for integrative multimodal and rhetorical genre analysis, while illustrating how the proposed framework can lead to the insights into the sociorhetorical roles multimodal genres play in mediating such activities as knowledge construction and disciplinary enculturation.

Abstract: Due to the enormous expansion in the accessibility of music data, music genre classification has taken on new significance in recent years. In order to have better access to them, we need to correctly index them. Automatic music genre classification is essential when working with a large collection of music. For the majority of contemporary music genre classification methodologies, researchers have favoured machine learning techniques. In this study, we employed two datasets with different genres. A Deep Learning approach is utilised to train and classify the system. A convolution neural network is used for training and classification. In speech analysis, the most crucial task is to perform speech analysis is feature extraction. The Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficient (MFCC) is utilised as the main audio feature extraction technique. By extracting the feature vector, the suggested method classifies music into several genres. Our findings suggest that our system has an 80% accuracy level, which will substantially improve on further training and facilitate music genre classification. Keywords: Music Genre Classification, CNN, KNN, Music information retrieval, feature extraction, spectrogram, GTZAN dataset, Indian music genre dataset.

Reading habits are often associated with an increased cognitive level. However, book genre can also affect the cognitive level. This is because different book genres can be attributed to different types of knowledge and tendency towards a specific book genre can be viewed as a preference towards a specific type of knowledge. Research on Malaysians’ interest and the tendency towards book genre and type of knowledge can be investigated using the publication data of each book genre and its prices. The objective of this research is to analyse and compare the book publications and the average price of each book’s genre in Malaysia with those of Japan. Comparison was done based on book categorisation genre strategy to 12 book genres. Based on Monte Carlo simulation method data, Malaysians are attracted to book genres on language, literature and science. While the Japanese are more interested in the book genres of social sciences and hobbies/art. The similarity between Malaysian and Japanese societies are that both societies also favour book genre of literature. However, it is possible that the themes of literary genre in Japan and Malaysia are very different. The result of this study can be used to identify the differences between Malaysian and Japanese reading habits as well as for formulating strategies to change Malaysian reading habits towards the style of Japanese reading habits.

Indonesia has a large sharia market potential. This is because Indonesia has the largest Muslim population in the world. The market potential is supported by the openness of information via the internet. This study aims to observe trends in information search on the internet about sharia with comparative studies on the genre of "business-industry" with the genre of "book-literature". The approach in this research is descriptive qualitative with the method of a literature study to collect data. The primary data of this study are the trends in sharia information sought by internet users throughout 2019. The results of the study indicate that the trend of information about sharia with the "business-industry" genre is more than the "book-literature" genre. The trend of seeking information about halal is the most trend in both genres, while the trend of finding the least information is information about sharia research.

Full textAbstract:
The Qur'an's employment of diverse modes of discourse is, perhaps, the text's defining literary feature. These discourses, ranging from apocalyptic, to narrative, to legal, have long been observed by Western scholars. Genre studies of the Qur'an, however, have largely stagnated, and little progress has been made beyond cursory classifications. This stagnation is particularly stunting to the study of the textual history of the Qur'an, as vital questions concerning the development of individual genres and the relationship between Qur'anic genre and the unit of the sura remain unanswered. This article marks a first attempt at formulating a literary framework for approaching Qur'anic genre. It will synthesise existing conceptions of Qur'anic genre into a common interpretative framework: individual Qur'anic genres exist as thematically and syntactically demarcated literary units. The article will then propose a novel, literary approach that utilises a comparative thematic and syntactic structural analysis of the Qur'an text to uncover the original, communicated pieces of Qur'anic revelation from the Prophet to an audience in time, or ‘Qur'anic utterances'. This literary analysis is applied to Sūrat Āl ʿImrān and will demonstrate that it is constructed of 34 individual utterances and nine distinct literary genres.

Full textAbstract:
The concept of the embedded genre is of crucial importance if we want to understand the way genres interact, within any given text, within any given genre, and in forming larger genre patterns. By discussing a tentative distinction between three kinds of embedding, “recontextualized embedding” (from Bakhtin), “contextualized embedding” (from Orlikowski & Yates), and “element genre” (from Swales and Martin), the present study initiates an unraveling of some of the intricacies involved in genre embedding. This demonstrates why genre research as well as studies of written communication can profit from integrating an expanded understanding of genre embedding in its theoretical deliberations and analytical work.

This article examines how genres of Nollywood soundtrack, which draw mainly from Nigerian popular music, effectively give Nollywood film genres their unique identification. This music genre–film genre association not only sets Nollywood apart from other cinema traditions, but also confers a marginal genre identity on its film music. The approach of this study is primarily ethnographic: pooling and teasing out inferences from the local discourse on film music practice, which the experiential evidence from forty classic Nollywood film samples support. The outcome shows that popular music is and can be a critical tool for distinguishing among film genres.

A genre or an approach in art is an identity for the art. It is not just itself in an empty space, but it was born and developed in an established system. Likewise, the genre in music; in general stable and orderly systems are ‘broken’ to form new genres. This product of musical violation produces an innovation, and evolves by being characterized by a constant flow of new violations, mainly due to the support of technological advances. In addition to technology, the personality of the musicians also contributes significantly; they add certain characteristics that are unique and distinctive to a band. This research is a study of the glorification process on violins by Earl Maneein in the metal core music band, Resolution15; glorification is a new technique and serves as the instrumentation media in the heavy metal music genre, and metal core is a further development of the genre. This study aims to analyze the creation of new genres through violin glorification in the bigger genre of heavy metal music. As a case study with historical and musicological approaches, this research shows that the glorification of instruments can be a new part of the classification of the formation of genre.Sebuah aliran atau genre di dalam seni adalah sebuah identitas bagi sebuah seni.

The study has been carried out in line with the current problems of modern discourse and genre studies related to the study of the evolution of administrative discourse, which is understood as a hybrid of oral and written communication. The article presents the results of the analysis of the Internet influence on the long-established genres of administrative discourse. The concept of administrative Internet communication has been clarified. The study of administrative discourse in the Internet space clearly demonstrates that even the most conservative sphere of activity is influenced by modern technologies and extralinguistic factors have the most direct impact on the genres formation. The administrative Internet functions are singled out: informing, requesting information, initiating discussions, organization. The genres of administrative Internet communication are analyzed, in the modern administrative discourse we have identified the most indicative in terms of management hypergenres and genres: the hypergenre "corporate web portal" or "Intranet", the genre "email", the genre "online meeting" or "video conferencing", the genre "electronic documents". This article details two genres: "corporate web portal" and "online meeting". The conducted survey made it possible to determine the pragmatic nature of the considered corporate web portal hyper-genre – keeping to corporate culture, interactivity, speed. It has been established that due to the mentioned Internet genres emergence, a partial decrease in distance and erasing of the status line in the "head-subordinate" pair occurs. It is concluded that cyberspace is transforming the power-subordinate nature of administrative communication into democratic partnership, as well as there is the transformation of traditional genres with the advent of electronic communication in the field of management. It is concluded that the theory of speech genres is applicable to study of the evolution of administrative communication, and new techniques are required to take into account linguistic changes caused by the development of information technologies.

Analysis of the genre tags revealed that users’ preferences in assigning tags emerged from the context of the resource. Study revealed significant variance in tagging vocabulary across four content categories and three resource genres. Based on Bakhtin’s genre theory (1986), this study suggests that utilization of genre should be grounded on language, in particular, on its meaning it carries to a particular group of individuals.

Full textAbstract:
In music studies, genre theory has primarily been used to study popular music rather than classical music. This article demonstrates how genre theory can be applied to studying classical music production in order to understand how its value is negotiated and reproduced. Drawing on data from interviews with early-career female classical musicians in London, it explores discourses of classical music as a genre in order to understand how genre shapes working lives. We identify three themes within the data: first, genre hierarchies contribute to the (re-)production of divisions of labour, in ways that reaffirm gendered hierarchies. Second, many research participants actively portrayed themselves as being interested in different musical genres, both as listeners and as performers, but identified other classical musicians as having pejorative attitudes towards non-classical genres or practices such as playing in a band. Third, genre hierarchies were (re-)produced in institutional settings, in musicians’ working practices and in social interactions. Overall, analysing classical music as a genre through examining the perspectives of freelance musicians shows that subgenres within classical music, as well as classical music itself, are understood relationally to other genres in a hierarchy of value that reaffirms existing inequalities in the cultural labour market.

Full textAbstract:
While the study of Mandarin Chinese intensifiers has been prolific, the methodologies used have been limited to comparative and grammaticalization studies, revealing little about the discourse-pragmatic usages of individual intensifiers. Utilizing a balanced corpus composed of 15 different prototypical genres, the associative strength of 12 commonly used intensifiers in each genre was statistically determined based on their frequency distribution. The results reveal a clear preference pattern of intensifiers across a range of “written” and “spoken”-based genres. Upon the premise that the genre preferences of intensifiers stem from matching dimensions of communicative intent/discourse context between genre and intensifier, genre-analysis was conducted to unveil the core “stances” each intensifier might possibly project. In conclusion, it is argued that genre-analysis based on empirical corpus data provides a valid alternative means to uncover seemingly “covert” aspects of language use.

Full textAbstract:
In recent movie recommendations, one of the most important issues is to predict the user’s sequential behavior to be able to suggest the next movie to watch. However, capturing such sequential behavior is not easy because each user’s short-term or long-term behavior must be taken into account. For this reason, many research results show that the performance of recommending a specific movie is not good in a sequential recommendation. In this paper, we propose a cluster-based method for classifying users with similar movie purchase patterns and a movie genre prediction algorithm rather than the movie itself considering their short-term and long-term behaviors. The movie genre prediction does not recommend a specific movie, but it predicts the genre for the next movie to watch in consideration of each user’s preference for the movie genre based on the genre included in the movie. Using this, it will be possible to provide appropriate guidelines for recommending movies including the genres to users who tend to prefer a specific genre. In particular, in this study, users with similar genre preferences are organized into clusters to recommend genres. For clusters that do not have relatively specific tendencies, genre prediction is performed by appropriately trimming genres that are not necessary for recommendation in order to improve performance. We evaluate our method on well-known movie data sets and qualitatively determine that it captures personalized dynamics and is able to make meaningful recommendations.

Full textAbstract:
The paper discusses the complex genre of tourist booklet as a fixed type of multimodal text that serves in a communicative situation of promoting a tourist product. This genre is a semiotically complex phenomenon, which conveys information through different semiotic systems. The methodological issues are posed as to a perspective model of genre analysis that would take into account the multimodal nature of genres. The author points to major hindrances that an analyst faces when doing multimodal analysis. The study focuses on discovering mechanisms of the interplay between verbal and visual components on semantic and formal levels, as well as showing how the elements of multimodal analysis can be targeted at various genre parameters. The booklets (85 items) for the study were collected in 2007–2019 in Australia, Great Britain, Germany, Poland, Russia and other countries. Methodologically, the paper draws on speech genre theory, semiotics, critical discourse analysis, and multimodal analysis. The claims are advanced that the tourist booklet has both obligatory and optional features, the visual component being obligatory. It is revealed that the colours of visuals can have factual and modal meanings embedded in them; photos convey precedent meanings; while using different semiotic codes, visual and verbal elements join the convergence relations and, thus, provide for genre coherence. The complex genre includes intertextual links between genres in its structure. These links may be of cross-code nature, since they are established between the elements of different semiotic systems, verbal and non-verbal. The conclusion is drawn that a consistent analytical model for multimodal genres has to be designed.

In the last 30 years genre scholars have explored the ideological dimension of genre, illustrating how genres compel individuals to act in certain ways and how individuals respond to them. This article takes the ideological view of genre and analyzes the problem of knowledge mobilization as an ideological negotiation between research and legal genres. Using Foucault's will to truth and Bhatia's colonization, this case study analyzes one Canadian public inquiry that used psychology research and influenced many legal and policy documents. The analysis of the commission report, transcripts from the preliminary hearing, and interviews reveal the manner in which judicial ideology is inscribed in judicial genres that regulate the extent and manner of knowledge mobilization.

The Internet has helped to change who writes about science in the news, how news is written, and how it is taken up by different audiences. However, few studies have examined how these changes have impacted the uptake of scientific claims in online news writing. This case study explores how online news genres take up knowledge claims from a research article on climate change over a period of one year and shows how shifting boundaries between rhetorical communities affect genre uptake. The study results show that online news writers predominantly use the news report genre to cover research findings for 48 hours, after which they predominantly use the news editorial genre to engage these findings. Analysis suggests that the news report genre uses the press release and the article abstract as intermediary genres, but the news editorial uses only the abstract. I argue that the switch between genres repositions the scientist, the journalist, and the public epistemologically, a reorientation that favors uptake in news media outlets supporting action to mitigate climate change and its effects.

Professor of the Leningrad State Conservatory composer Feodosy Antonovich Rubtsov (1904-1986) entered the history of Russian musicology as the author of the original concept of the structure of scales of folk songs. The scientist formulated main positions in monographs “Intonation Relations in the Songs of Slavs” (1962) and “The principles of mode construction in Russian Folk Songs” (1964). Comprehension of the concept of “genre”, the definition of genre features of traditional folk songs is a little-known side of Rubtsov’s scientific heritage. The study of archival documents (in particular, the transcripts of the report “Principles for Determining Genres of Folk Songs”, which was made in 1966 at the Leningrad department of the Union of Composers at the scientific conference “Theoretical Problems of Musical Forms and Genres”) shows that the scientist formulated a number of positions that were relevant for the 1960–1970. “Genre” is a genus and species concept, multi-level concept. The main criterion for determining the genre is the function, the stylistic features and the type of form are important too. Rubtsov noted that the genre system of folklore is capable of renewal, and the characteristic property of the genres of musical folklore lies in their ability in a certain context to act as a function of another genre

The research focuses on the relevant pedagogical problem of the formation of genre thinking as a foreign language communicative competence component. The article is part of the authors' project aimed at creating a genre-based approach to teaching Russian as a foreign language. It presents a genre-based approach to teaching writing in Russian as a foreign language on the example of the recommendation letter genre. The authors not only developed but also tested this teaching format. The authors substantiated the research methodology using Russian and foreign scholars' modern research. They consider concepts “genre-based approach”, “genre literacy”, “genre competence” as important for the study; define the concept of speech genre by characterizing the content of genreforming parameters. As an example of applying the genre-based approach to teaching writing, the authors give the system of working with a recommendation letter with its genre varieties such as (1) informal, friendly letter of recommendation; (2) private official letter of recommendation; (3) business letter of recommendation. The authors note that the application of the presented approach involves compliance with two principles: (1) the teacher should know the genre features of the genre students study; (2) all language means of the text should be selected and explained taking into account their focus on the implementation of genre parameters of the studied speech genre. The genre features of the recommendation letter are clarified, the stages of the implementation of the genre-oriented methodology are characterized and justified, a set of genre-oriented tasks and a genre-oriented system for evaluating the results of students' productive speech activity in writing are proposed. The authors conclude that the methodology of teaching written speech focused on the implementation of genre parameters in the text, allows students to form stable skills of productive speech activity, providing the ability to produce texts of the studied genres in real situations of written communication. At the same time, this approach can be used when teaching the writing of not only scientific and business texts, but also genres of private official correspondence, as well as friendly correspondence, which is less codified, but still has certain features. The next advantage of the proposed approach is the importance of stable genre skills formation in the field of foreign language writing, since students in the future, if necessary, will be able to transfer them to their native language.

Retrieving music information is indispensable and divided into multiple genres. Music genres can be attributed to set categories, which are the indispensable functions of intelligent music recommendation systems. To improve the effect of music genre classification and model construction, combined with the music genre classification algorithm, this paper combines the multihead attention mechanism to study the music genre classification algorithm model, and it analyzes the key technology of music beamforming. Moreover, this paper has made a detailed description and derivation of the array antenna model, the principle of music beamforming, and the performance evaluation criteria of music adaptive beamforming. In the second half, the nonblind classical LMS algorithm, RLS algorithm, and variable step size LMS algorithm of adaptive beamforming are studied in detail. A music genre classification algorithm model based on the multihead attention mechanism is constructed. It can be seen from the experimental research that the music genre classification algorithm based on the multihead attention mechanism proposed in this paper has obvious advantages compared with the traditional algorithm, and it has a certain role in music genre classification.

AbstractCentral to rhetorical genre theory is the notion of ‘rhetorical situation’ (Bitzer, 1968), which emphasizes context as sociohistorically situated. In the analysis of academic genres, this notion helps us to think of the contexts that genres respond to as dynamic, varying across time and space, rather than as stable and unified disciplinary discourse communities. From this social perspective, academic disciplines are theorized as including a great number and range of rhetorical situations (Paré, 2014), and the idea of genre variation becomes of increasing scholarly interest. In this study, rhetorical genre theory and the concept of ‘rhetorical situation’ provide a framing for the analysis of a recurrent discursive event. The event is the design studio ‘crit’, a weekly presentation and review of students’ in-progress design ideas and artifacts, through which the teaching and learning of architectural design is enacted in the academy. In a professionally-oriented discipline such as architecture, curriculum genres often need to negotiate tensions between the academy and the profession. Applied to such settings, a rhetorical genre approach invites us to think about whose values and knowledge dominate, and who has the authority to adapt the genre to suit its changing needs. This paper reports on interviews with five design teachers (one senior academic and four professional practitioners). The interviews reveal how the teachers take up the crit genre in diverse ways, including what counts as knowledge and competence in the design studio and how this knowledge is best taught, learnt and assessed. The paper concludes that students would benefit from a genre pedagogy that focuses on genre variation, its sources and its consequences, as well as genre conventionality.

Online games are currently popular among teenagers as a way to entertain their time and having fun. Some claimed that by playing games could enhance learning ability, improved focus and attention, treat depression, less anti-social and many more. However, playing games could also become an addiction where some might involve with physical and health problems. This paper investigated gender-based students’ perceptions on playing games with their daily life. The perceptions study was developed based on ten items that related to students’ daily task. This study is also to identify the most popular game genres and genre-gender based preference from twelve game genres listed in this study. The data were collected among 116 students from Diploma in game design and development course offered by Faculty of Arts, Computing & Creative Industry at Sultan Idris Education University (UPSI), Malaysia. The results showed that majority of the students perceived themselves as love to play games however percentage of male students are higher than female students. The mean analyses also showed the highest score from ten (10) tasks is ‘meet new friends’ and this also the highest mean for both genders. The result also showed that ‘Adventure’ game genre is the most popular game genre among both gender while ‘music/dance’ genre is the least popular genre for male but the third popular game genre for female.

What is a genre? What distinguishes a genre like science fiction from other genres? We convert texts to data and answer these questions by demonstrating a new method of quantitative literary analysis. We state and test directional hypotheses about contents of texts across the science fiction, mystery, and fantasy genres using psychometrically validated word categories from the Linguistic Inquiry and Word Count. We also recruit the work of traditional genre theorists in order to test humanists’ interpretations of genre. Since Darko Suvin’s theory is among the few testable definitions of science fiction given by literary scholars, we operationalize and test it. Our project works toward developing a model of science fiction, and introduces a new method for the interdisciplinary study of literature in which interpretations of literary scholars can be put to the test.

Recently, genre studies contribute not only to linguistic areas but also to the areas of language education. In language teaching and learning, developing learners’ awareness of various genres, especially those prevail in their future job contexts, is essential in the sense that learners could be better prepared to successfully produce texts of the same genres when required. In this study, genre-based activities (GBAs) were introduced to 40 third-year EFL students in two linguistic classes. The data collection was conducted via class interaction, assignment analysis and informal talks. The data analysis revealed that, despite some limitations in the intervention, GBAs had such positive effects on students’ development of reviewing skills in English writing as: students could link their text evaluation and revision to the contextual features, they tried to read extensively about the features of different genres, and accordingly, they could enhance their genre awareness, resulting in their better evaluation and revision of texts. However, it was found that unfamiliar genres might hinder the effects of GBAs. Texts elicited from students and multimodal texts were more appropriate inputs for novice genre analysts.

Full textAbstract:
Using the novella as the European literary genre has divided the Iranian literary scholars due mostly to its unknown features. Lack of research in this area has caused many writers either to abandon this literary term or to opt for alternatives such as “novelette”,” long story”, “long short story” or “short story”. This article aims to introduce the theory and characteristics of the novella as a unique literary genre, based on German literature. Despite the Italian root of the novella, it reflects its Germanic roots as it was flourished in the 18th and 19th centuries Germany. In addition, the paper explores the concept of “long story” in Iranian literature as the synonym of the term novella. The Blind Owl clearly exhibits these characteristics of the genre, especially the dramatic structure and representing a new aspect of human trait. The analysis of The Blind Owl leads to a deeper understanding of one of the most important and well-formed European literary genres and a new look at Sadegh Hedayat’s ideology as a professional author in addition to familiarizing scholars with this genre.

Full textAbstract:
Le genre Aquilaria Lam. (Thymelaeaceae) comprend 21 espèces d’arbres (The Plant List, 2013) et se trouve principalement en Asie du Sud-Est. Lorsque l’arbre est infecté (champignons, bactéries), son bois devient brunâtre ou noirâtre (appelé bois d’agar) en raison de la sécrétion d’une oléorésine en réaction à l’infection. La résine est très parfumée et a été recherchée et utilisée pendant des siècles par les bouddhistes, les hindous et les musulmans pour faire de l’encens pour les cérémonies religieuses. Cette oléorésine se trouve principalement dans les espèces du genre Aquilaria, mais aussi dans quelques espèces des genres Gyrinops Gaertner et Gonystylus Teijsmann & Binnendijk. Il est difficile de faire la distinction entre ces espèces, et ce manque de connaissances taxonomiques a conduit à une surutilisation des arbres, mettant en danger ces espèces endémiques inscrites à l’Annexe II de la CITES. Nous avons utilisé la chimiotaxonomie comme outil de discrimination pour analyser les molécules polyphénoliques, métabolites secondaires, qui sont connus pour agir comme marqueurs taxonomiques dans d’autres plantes. En utilisant une technique d’analyse simple, efficace et peu coûteuse (chromatographie bidimensionnelle en couche mince), nous avons trouvé la même molécule polyphénolique dans les six espèces du genre Aquilaria étudiées, qui a été identifiée comme mangiférine par analyse colorimétrique et chromatographique en comparaison avec la mangiférine de contrôle. Au cours de ces analyses, nous avons trouvé une relation entre les genres Aquilaria et Gyrinops (botaniquement démontrée) par l’existence occasionnelle de mangiférine chez trois espèces du genre Gyrinops. Nous avons également constaté qu’un laps de temps de cent-quarante ans entre deux échantillons d’herbier de la même espèce n’avait pratiquement aucun effet sur la concentration de mangiférine dans la plante. Ces travaux ont montré les mérites de la chimiotaxonomie dans la recherche de marqueurs taxonomiques et l’originalité de l’analyse colorimétrique d’un métabolite de plante chromatographié en couche mince.

Full textAbstract:
This is a study of adjectival modification, that is the use of adjectives and adjectival participles, in the genres of book information and place description. Book information represents a genre with a subtle, covertly persuasive function, while place description is taken to have little or no persuasive force. The study starts out with a quantitative element, establishing lexical densities of the eight texts in the data. This is followed by qualitative analyses of the functions which adjectives have in the genres examined. Answers are sought to these primary questions: 1) What is the role of modifying adjectives in the lexical density of the texts analysed? 2) What discourse functions do these adjectives fulfil in the two genres? The conclusions of the study include: 1) High occurrence of modifying items does not automatically equal nominal style. 2) High occurrence of modifying items is not an automatic sign of high lexical density. 3) The frequent use of modifiers in non-fiction is not limited to persuasion, since adjectives are also frequent in the genre in which the descriptive function is foregrounded.
