Genre

$74.4

"Genre" is a key means by which we categorize the many forms of literature and culture. But it is also much more than that: in talk and writing, in music and images, in film and television, genres actively generate and shape our knowledge of the world.
Understanding genre as a dynamic process rather than a set of stable rules, this book explores:
- The relation of simple to complex genres
- The history of literary genre in theory
- The generic organization of implied meanings
- The structuring of interpretation by genre
- The uses of genre in teaching
John Frow's lucid exploration of this fascinating concept will be essential reading for students of literary and cultural studies.

The Last True Story I'll Ever Tell

The streets of Baghdad and its inhabitants figure prominently in this soldier`s tale of the 2002 Iraqi invasion and its aftermath. John Crawford, now a civilian, recalls his experiences in a National Guard unit that, day in and day out, patrolled the city and had direct contact with civilians. Crawford tells many stories here--about his fellow soldiers, shop owners, Iraqi men, women and children, and himself: his reserve unit was called up while he was on his honeymoon, and he was pulled in the middle...
