A note on ‘Westerns’
In the genre wheel, I have included ‘Westerns’ in quotation marks. This is to encourage you to think about the ‘Western’ genre as a collection of themes with great creative potential (like individuality, man-versus-nature, discovery of self, isolation, etc.), rather than a hyper-specific period of American history.
