Abstract

If we consider the community of writers to include poets, philosophers, historians, journalists, and researchers, and view poets as the first inhabitants of this community who earned their livelihood professionally through writing and thus transferred the tradition of writing to subsequent generations, then perhaps the reality of the literary structure established by poets and preserved through successive generations of writers can be better understood. Therefore, it would not be an exaggeration to extend Aristotle's theory on the structure of tragedy first to news texts in journalism and subsequently to the methodology of writing scientific articles across all fields. Then scientists, professors, and researchers in modern sciences can be considered scientific storytellers who use literary frameworks in both content and structure. This article aims to rely on the components of literary narrative analysis and refer to the production processes, principles, and styles of article writing to address the commonalities between two seemingly different yet fundamentally similar genres in their underlying layers.
