Genre Study and Television is an influential paper in genre studies by Jane Feuer.
In it, Feuer notes first of all that the term "genre" itself implies that that cultural works can be categorized. She then develops a model of creation and categories for genres. Their creation is often post hoc, by intellectuals; e.g., "film noir" was a term developed and applied by French scholars to a number of mid-20th century films by US filmmakers. Feuer then develops her own typology.
