The introductions of research articles can often been described within the well-known frame of the "Creating a Research Space" (CARS) model of John Swales. Yet, this contribution wants to discuss this model in parallel with the ancient rhetoric model of dispositio. It is argued that the CARS model does not envision a captatio benevolentiae in research articles, which are in fact quite often present. Then, the place and importance of the partitio, that is to say the announcement of the plan, is analyzed in a corpus of research articles to highlight this important but somewhat neglected move in the introduction. The aim of this article is to design a model of introduction within a rhetoric and text linguistics point of view.
