This article will focus on the self (I/we) perspective in combination with the other (you/they) perspective as manifested through polyphonic expressions within the genre of the research article. The materials are taken from the KIAP project based at the University of Bergen. Four points will be discussed: 1) The notion of linguistic polyphony can handle the combination of the two perspectives of self and other in a fruitful way; 2) There are some polyphonic phenomena which seem to constitute a common feature or core of the research article within different languages; 3) The linguistic theory of polyphony offers an important methodological insight into the study of scientific discourse; 4) The polyphonic perspective may represent a different approach to the pedagogy of genre teaching which calls for more critical awareness of how discourse works.
