Summary/Abstract: This paper deals with ‘speech genres’ in Russian linguistics, as well as the sources and results of scientifi c research conducted within the concept. Thereby, most of the paper relies on the synthetic work of V. V. Dementiev. It concludes that the founder of this direction in research is M. Bakhtin and that most of the research efforts are focused on the transit period between the 20th and 21st centuries. Dementiev points out both the results of the work and certain inconsistencies that should be overcome. The greatest obstacle is observed in the incapacity to define the starting points of the theory and structural principle of the research corpus. At the end of the paper, there is an example of the ‘recipe’ style, through which it is shown how ‘genre’ could be defined from a linguistic point of view.
