How horror has changed over time
The setting in which a text is produced, that is the gathering of factors
'outside' the text which knowingly determine its meaning (i.e. the time,
place and values of the society in which it was collected), have an
important influence on the reception and symbol of the genre of which
that text is a part. An example of such an rate is the horror genre and the
way in which it has varied and taken numerous forms throughout time and
in different cultures.
In order to be defined as a text from the horror genre, certain
characteristics are usually required, yet due to the constantly changing
values of society throughout time, not to mention the opposite values of
different cultures around the world, these characteristics are not only
pretty broad, but open to use and assumption as a result of the different
time and place, as well as the values of the society in which a text is
produced.
