ABSTRACT
Currently, there is no doubt about the availability of expressive means in the texts of scientific content. The aim of the paper is to analyze aesthetics means in scientific texts due to the author’s individuality and dialogical nature of scientific communication. The research materials are Spanish scientific articles and theses. The findings are discussed regarding the idea that there is a common intertextual space between the text created by the author and other texts that made up the author’s cultural and scientific experience. The conclusion is made that besides the traditional functions of intertextuality in the scientific text there is an aesthetic function.
