Quand le discours de savoir se fait technodiscours. Hypertextualité, commentaires et unité textuelle du billet scientifique

Abstract

This article proposes some lines to determine how scientific discourses on blogs are likely to make text. It focuses more specifically on hypertextual enrichment and comments that question textual boundaries. The analysis based on a corpus of 87 posts extracted from Hypothèses (a platform of blogs in the Humanities) identify the cognitive functions provided by these two components and their impact on the textual judgment (Adam 2011) that may be carried on the posts. Finally, it proposes a reading of hypertextual enrichment and comments as discursive gestures of knowledge (Lttr13 2016) that play a role in the textualization process of scientific posts.
