The (Problematic) Issue to Evaluate Literariness: Digital Literature Between Legitimation and Canonization
The first experiments in digital literary forms started as early as
the 1960s. From then, up to the mid-90’s, was a period that,
according to Chris Funkhouser (2007), can be considered as
a ‘laboratory’ phase. The rise of the Internet has resulted in the
proliferation of creative proposals. The first involves indexing
creative works in the form of databases, sometimes giving access
to hundreds of works without any hierarchical order. Since 2000,
digital literature has been experiencing a new phase, marked by
the creation of anthologies. Over the years, the evaluation and
selection criteria have proved to be as problematic as they are
necessary for these projects. The main issue of this paper is to
provide a critical discussion of these criteria.Eric Dean Rasmussen - 22.06.2012 - 16:40
