Abstract

This article explores the making of the dizi genre. Coming a long way since the 1970s, the dizi genre, which was once inspired by foreign drama, has now established a global impact, reaching out to distant territories and audiences. As a genre, dizi has different features from the soap and telenovela. Because dizis are shot in natural settings and because dialogues are natural, dizis are slow. The musical, textual and visual diversity is richer than the soap and the telenovela which also have a slow narrative flow.Cet article se penche sur la fabrique du dizi (série turque) comme genre. Le genre du dizi, dont l’élaboration remonte aux années 1970, a été inspiré par les fictions étrangères ; il a maintenant un impact mondial et touche des territoires et des audiences lointains. Comme genre, le dizi est différent du soap ou du telenovela. Comme les dizis sont tournées en extérieur et que le rythme des dialogues se déroulent naturellement, les dizis sont lentes. La diversité musicale, textuelle et visuelle est plus riche que le soap et le telenovela, qui ont aussi un rythme narratif lent.
