Summary/Abstract: In this article we aim to identify the characteristics of the discourse of scientific popularization within the university, after establishing the main discursive communities and genre networks from within the multiversity, based on the discursive communities theory proposed by Swales. Following an analysis of the features of the public genre network, especially from the scientific perspective, we analyse the vulgarization discourse in the articles of science popularization from the point of view of the linguistic means used.
