Keywords: Literature; genre theories

Summary/Abstract: The article aims at examining Tinianov’s and Bakhtin’s genre theories and the similarities and differences between them. The comparative analysis of these two conceptions shows that their foundation has followed almost the same logic. Both conceptions are similar in considering genre as dynamic construction. This view opposes to the normative aesthetics that examines genre as static system with strict rules. From this point of view Tinianov’s and Bakhtin’s genre theories are topical in contemporary literary scholarship.
