Résumé anglais Des genres à la généricité. L'exemple des contes (Perrault et les Grimm). This article sets out to demonstrate that the determination of the genre to which an utterance belongs may have an impact at every level of organization of a text. In order to grasp the full complexity of this impact, we propose a more dynamic approach to the question of genre - ie the set of categories to which texts may be said to belong. The concepts of genericity and of the effects of genericity which we develop here are intended to help us think through both the acts of writing and of reading as complex processes. A text does not belong in any predetermined or abstract sense to a genre, but rather it is put in relation with one or more genres both during its production and its reception-interpretation. By studying closely the complexity of the variations, this article shows the generic differences between the tales of Perrault and of Grimm.
