Résumé:In this article, I shall deal with the concept of formula, created by John Cawelti as a means of studying popular culture, mostly literature. Based on a difference between conventions and inventions, this concept promised a lot of change in theoretical dealings with popular culture.

I also investigate in greater depth the aforementioned relation between convention and invention.
