Abstract: A STUDY OF THE EVOLUTION AND DIVERSITY OF A STEREOTYPICAL GENRE - THE RECIPE GENRE POON KA MAN SHIRLEY The University of Hong Kong M.A. Dissertation January 2007 ABSTRACT Recipes are genres. Genres are not recipes. With different communicative purposes, features of a stereotypical genre may change. This paper aims to portray the evolution and diversity of a stereotypical genre, the recipe genre, showing its development and versatility, in order to demonstrate the multiple ways in which it is exploited to serve different social purposes. Illustrations of recipes have been chosen, particularly from the "expert members of the discourse community," for instance, well-known chefs of the period or celebrity chefs, as representatives to illustrate the arguments. A brief introduction on genre is given, followed by an introduction of some typical features of a typical recipe, and a discussion on the purpose of recipe writing, so as to lay the ground for our discussion. The analysis follows a chronological main structure, with recursive linguistic analytical treatment for each historical phase. The changes in the structure of the recipes, the language employed, and the contents in terms of how it builds the personality of chefs are illustrated. The analysis found that typical features of the recipe retain throughout the history of time. However, with a shift of the communicative purpose towards building chefs as personalities, the content becomes richer and language becomes more expressive, with wider tonal colouration. I hope this dissertation will draw awareness to the fact that recipes have a greater social significance than is generally perceived by society, and that it will in turn promote research into the relationship between the recipe genre and how it reflects the shaping and the changing of society.
