Hypertext,
you decided, was a departure from Print Culture. It was not Ôat warÕ with print. In fact,
of course hypertext relied on print [What were we clicking on anyway?]. You
thanked Stuart Moulthrop for clearing this up: multi-linear still contains
lines] and then
thought of how John BarthÕs form relied on literary elements of ÔtextÕ,
ÔnarrativeÕ and ÔauthorÕ. Of course they still existed. Hypertext presented a
form-content dualism, but was never freed from the material, nor were its
authors or readers or author-readers.
