Dissertation note: Thesis (M.A.) - Cairo University - Faculty of Arts - Department of English Summary: The free nature of the internet leads individuals not only to read what the network delivers, but also to interpret, because all contributions are welcome. In other words, the individual turns from being a 2commodity3 that only receives meanings to aproducer that takes meanings and reproduces them. This 2reproductability3 of the internet provides individuals with the space to have their own contributions. Away from the limitations of the printed texts that express the dominant ideology, the internet cyborgs create their own online poetic responses to respond to the events of September 11. A look at some of these poetic hypertexts created on the web reveals the ability of the cyberspace citizens to produce an alternative version of history that presents a different reading to the events that opposes the reading imposed by the mainstream media
