Yes. I believe that we are a genre in constant development.  I also believe that we try to create definitions that we think are better than the previous or that we think would be better for out future generations. So in a sense we are likea public blog, those who contribute, participate, and not afraid to be known, write the book. I am taking a lot of political theory and international politics andit seems to me that the essence of it is trying to change (it takes time, butit eventually does) and to therefore creating a new genre. I don’t know if you remember the poem we read in class I think its called “The Law Of The Law OF Genre” This poem is by far one of my favorite poems. I feel that is telling us that; we, people are a work of literature that try to keep the good old chapters and try to write new ones.
