AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Kim Wilkins looks at the question of genre noting that '...genres are not static, ahistorical categories. Rather, genres are processes.' Wilkins uses as an example her own novel Giants of the Frost (2004) which 'was positioned and re-positioned in terms of genre: via my own intentions, via reader reception and via institutional influences (e.g. the university, my publishers, the media, booksellers).'
