Abstract

Different theoretical perspectives on the notion of discourse genre serve to underline the complex and dynamic nature ofthis concept, taken as the basis for a hierarchical model for analyzing the Mexican soap opera. We then justify the inclusion ofthe notions ofregister and frame in the same model through illustration ofthe use of all three semantic spaces to examine the generation and expression of meanings at a series of different levels, from the broadest macrotextual level right down to that of microtext. We comment briefly on the generic and subgeneric organization of the ‘telenovela’ or soap opera, emphasizing its significance for the study ofsocial semiotic processes.
