Abstract (in English)
Beginning by discussing his experience of reading the hypertexts in WOE (the Words on the Edge collection), Harpold uses bodily and fleshy comparisons to analyse hypertext: "My goal in this essay is to draw upon the entanglements of hypertext anatomy to outline a stylistics of hypertext informed by its contours. The practice of hypertext as a way of writing and reading is determined by its formal traits as a way of conversation. Medium as meat, reading as peristalsis."
