This article is as follows: the analysis of the writer's works should be built in the context of his creativity, taking into account their genre, which makes it possible to create a system of lessons on the study of the writer's work from form to content. First, genre specificity determines the plan and logic of the analysis, and secondly, the analysis in the context of the genre is a necessary condition for penetration into the ideological and artistic structure of the work, comprehension of the author's concept. Cognition of the "laws of the genre" equips students with the skills to analyze the work in the unity of content and form, so it is so significant theoretical and practical solution to the issue of genre specificity of the artwork when studying the work of writers in secondary school. There is still no consensus on the definition of the concept of "genre," nor on its relationship to genre and species, nor the principles of genre classification.
