A heuristic model of hypertext(ual) reading: The convergence of translation and rhetoric.
Martin, Kelly Ann.

A heuristic model of hypertext(ual) reading: The convergence of translation and rhetoric. - 196 p.

Advisers: Marilyn Waligore; Cynthia Haynes.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of Texas at Dallas, 2008.

The objective of this dissertation is straightforward: to advance a pointed paradigm and set of methods for questioning and studying hypertext(s). The three linchpins of this model and methodology are translation, rhetoric, and new media, and to flesh out such points of overlap between these areas of study, I first explore them as somewhat autonomous sites and then as convergent ones. In Chapter 1, I develop translation as a hermeneutical process and model, while in Chapter 2, I argue that translative principles inform the models of rhetorical communication and interpretation and that translative processes are implicit in these rhetorical acts. (Accordingly, the formal theories and practices of rhetoric can inform those of translation.) I also develop this line of argument in Chapter 3, but here I am concerned with hypertext(ual) translation and how translation and rhetoric can inform the theorization and interpretation of hypertext(s). Finally, in Chapter 4, I actually interpret some hypertexts with the model and methods that I advance.

520 $a The objective of this dissertation is straightforward: to advance a pointed paradigm and set of methods for questioning and studying hypertext(s). The three linchpins of this model and methodology are translation, rhetoric, and new media, and to flesh out such points of overlap between these areas of study, I first explore them as somewhat autonomous sites and then as convergent ones.

Finally, in Chapter 4, I actually interpret some hypertexts with the model and methods that I advance.
520 $a Each of these chapters serves to provoke a discourse about its respective subject, but I also hope that they collectively inspire an interrogation into how hypertexts, and their specific (re)medial elements, mean and interrelate to shape meaning. By modeling and even repurposing the methods of translation and rhetoric, we can rethink and question notions of hypertext(ual) meaning and cultivate an appreciation of hypertext that moves beyond, yet also involves, conventional issues of accessibility, organization, and intuitiveness. We can then (re)consider (1) the value and meaning of hypertextual affordances, such as the hyperlink or the graphical-user interface; (2) the value and meaning of "old" modes/media, such as images, within hypertexts; (3) and the relationships between "old" and "new" media. While there are many studies that concern these issues (although studies about the theoretical, rhetorical, or cultural possibilities of hypertext seem to dominate), there have been no studies to date that advance a coordinated and practical methodology for studying these possibilities. Hopefully, my study is a start and is one of many to come.
