Summary: | We are working on the notion of "digital textuality" based on a corpus of literary works designed by the publishing house Publie.net. In an grounded, communicational and stylistic approach, we link three levels (the work's backstage, its materialisation and the reader's performance) to bring to light the stakes of this textuality, from a social, technical and cognitive point of view. In particular, we show that these devices put in tension the actors who conceive them and force them to make their project explicit, without which the reader (summoned, idealised) would be confused. Disseminated in the reading space, the signs of the "editorial intention" should enable the reader to solve the enigma posed by literary works claimed to be experimental. By describing such a process, we are forging new concepts capable of enriching the understanding of digital textuality.
