Introduction: Approaches to Genre

This volume is based on a panel that Peter Muntigl, Helmut Gruber and Eija Ventola organized for the 8th International Pragmatics Association Conference in Toronto, July 2003. The panel was entitled “Approaches to Genre” and had aimed at bringing together scholars from different backgrounds in genre research in order to initiate a critical dialogue. Mostly due to the unfortunate circumstances surrounding this IPRA conference (the SARS crisis that troubled many prospective conference attendants in July 2003), some of the contributors to this volume were not able to attend the conference. Unfortunately, one of the panel participants (Gunter Senft) was not able to participate in this volume. We would especially like to thank Wolfgang U. Dressler for the invitation to publish the papers of our panel as a Special Issue of Folia Linguistica.
