This expression often occurred in common language as well: as part of expressions such as “not my genre”.
Genre is used as a term suitable for certain groups and types of certain phenomena or activities.
Genre is a collective concept of identical or similar characteristics that enables the categorisation and classification of works of art and texts. In other words, genre category connects the works and separates them from each other – this is the essence of the genre as succinctly as possible.
