Since all elements in a hypertext system are subject to connection, it becomes harder to separate one discourse from another.In printed works notes and bibiliography give writings outside the current text a presence on the page, but that presence is metaphoric. Hypertext abolishes this metaphor: the other writings actually become present when the reader activates a link. Hypertext thus offers to revise our notions of definitive discourse. It seems to move us in the direction of Roland Barthes' "writerly" text, defined as "that social space that leaves no language safe or untouched, that allows no enunciative subject to hold the position of judge, teacher, analyst, confessor, or decoder".
