Dear Colleagues,
It may be of interest that, in the following quote from *Cohesion In
English*,
Halliday & Hasan identify genre, in the sense of narrative etc., with
(rhetorical) mode.
Halliday & Hasan (1976: 22):
The mode is the function of the text in the event, including therefore both
the channel taken by the language — spoken or written, extempore or
prepared — and its genre, or rhetorical mode, as narrative, didactic,
persuasive. 'phatic communion' and so on.
