Hello all, I'm wondering if anyone can help me: I'm looking for recent books/articles on genre mastery. Specifically, I'm looking studies of (or theoreticaly musings about) the genre use of highly literate or empowered members of a discourse community. I'm already familiar with a few key sources (Coe et al.'s The Rhetoric and Ideology of Genre; Bahktin's "The Problem of Speech Genres"; Freedman & Medway's Genre and the New Rhetoric; and the like); and I'm now looking to branch out... Is there anywhere to branch out to? Any suggestions would be much appreciated! Cheers, Rebecca Carruthers [log in to unmask] ---- The computer can't tell you the emotional story.
