Abstract

This paper analyzes the representations of the English language and its teaching-learning process manifested in virtual communities hosted in the Orkut network. It also analyzes how locutor and enunciator configurations take place (Guimarães, 2002) in the hypertextual uttering setting, as an attempt to get some evidence about how such conceptions of the teaching process and of the English language itself are expressed through this new media.
