Abstract

Before considering Hypertext as a semiotic object we need to consider some rational previous aspects. First, we would like this brief contribution to be considered as a starting point for someone who has just arrived on the Hypertext Planet and not at all as the end point of the research already developed in this domain. Second, we would like to take it as a provocation: this is because on a former occasion (Gomes et al., 1989; Gomes & Costa Pereira, 1990), we rejected the term Hypertext, and proposed another, Holotext, for reasons explained then. It is usual to forgive newcomers a certain boldness even if it is too much as in this case.
