GENRE AND THE PERFORMANCE OF PUBLICS

"Moves beyond institutional settings to explore public contexts that are less hierarchical, broadening the theory of how genres contribute to the interconnected and dynamic performances of public life. Extends the understanding, not only social ways of organizing texts or mediating relationships within institutions, but dynamic performances themselves"--Provided by publisher.
