Résumé
This article takes as a case study two french companies, Scribay and Plumavitae, which present themselves as online incubators dedicated to the learning of literary writing. We show, based on interviews we have conducted, how they put at the heart of their project political and commercial visions of literary writing based on registers of moral justification close to the “model of the cities” (Boltanski, Thévenot). Secondly, we look at the process of enrolment of beta-readers, showing that the strategies of normalization of online activities are based on forms of framing of the critical work of proofreading. This exploitation goes hand in hand with promises of access to publishing jobs or to forms of recognition linked to the status of writer.
