“…What matters for the people who manage blogs is the invention of suitable scenographies inside the frame imposed by this hypergenre. For example, in her study of 80 blogs of French politicians which were on line in September 2007, Lehti (2011) has distinguished five kinds of scenographies: "diary", "scrapbook", "notice-board", "essay" and "polemic". By imposing their own scenography, the designers of websites give meaning to their own activity, to the images of themselves and of their addressees, to the relationship between them and so forth.…”

This contribution aims to outline some limits of discourse analysis today. Discourse analysis may not privilege any specific kind of data, but, like modern linguistics since the beginning of the 20th century, most discourse analysts focus on a restricted area within the manifold manifestations of discourse. They take for granted that discourse must be modeled after conversational practices, and/or that the basic relevant unit of discourse analysis is the pair text/genre. This restriction can be explained by the historical context in which discursive approaches have emerged. However, it can be argued that such a standard is not relevant for a wide range of data, that discourse practices can be divided into various regimes, which correspond to various models of communication and must accordingly be analyzed with specific concepts and toolkits. This article discusses two main phenomena that call this standard into question: (1) the notion of genre on the Internet; (2) "textless sentences" and authorship. Indeed, these all imply another conception of discourse activity that deserves to be taken into account if we are to consider discourse activity in the full diversity of its manifestations.

“…Em um estudo consagrado a 80 blogs de profissionais da política na França durante o mês de setembro de 2007, L. Lehti (2011) assim distinguiu cinco subgêneros aos quais recorrem os homens ou as mulheres políticas: diário, scrapbook, diário de notícias, ensaio e polêmica. Este estudo recorre ao termo de "subgêneros", mas me parece mais pertinente falar aqui de tipos de cenografias no interior do hipergênero do blog.…”

introduçãoA categoria do gênero do discurso é o coração da Análise do Discurso, que por natureza se focaliza sobre os dispositivos de enunciação, a articulação entre os lugares sociais e os modos de organização textual. Mas não se pode refletir sobre a questão dos gêneros [ou a generacidade] de maneira a-histórica, sem levar em conta os mundos dos quais participam as práticas verbais. É evidente, em particular, que a aparição

“…Sarangi forthcoming). For this reason, most genre researchers recognize or appeal to some notion of "typicality" or "prototypicality" in their discussion of genre and of hybridity (e.g., Sarangi 2000: 23, Sarangi forthcoming;Solin 2009;Lehti 2011Lehti : 1610.…”

“…In an analysis of blogs written by French politicians, Lehti (2011) regards the blog as a super-genre, a politician's blog as a genre, and the types of texts that constitute the genre -diary, scrapbook, noticeboard, essay, and polemic -as subgenres. This deploying of other genres as an integral and conventionalized feature of a particular genre is akin to the examples discussed in Section 3.4, where texts are appropriated for ironic purposes (e.g., the review of Evanescence, Terra Nullius Pie) or to mislead a gullible reader (advertisement written as a letter).…”

This article is an investigation and a discussion of hybridity and related terms as used in linguistic studies of genre. The theoretical points that are made are illustrated with data from empirical research done by others and with the authors’ own data. The focus is on written texts but hybridity in spoken interaction is also discussed. The article defines the notion of genre and discusses (proto)typicality in relation to genre and hybridity. Recontextualization is also discussed. This is followed by a discussion of terms that have been used to talk about the processes of hybridity, firstly, as used in research that has mainly been done on spoken interaction. The focus then turns to terms that have mainly been used in research on written texts: sequential intertextuality, genre embedding, genre appropriation, genre blending, as well as terms referring to pervasive trends such as commodification. Terms that take a product-like perspective on hybridity are then discussed. First there is a discussion of terms, such as “macrogenre,” which are used to describe the products of hybridization. This is followed by a discussion of genre chains and superordinate categories, such as “genre colonies,” grouped together because of the hybridizing forces that permeate them.
