2. Making Connections Visible: Building a Knowledge Base for Electronic Literature

   Developing a Network-Based Creative Community: Electronic Literature as a Model of Creativity and Innovation in Practice (ELMCIP) is a collaborative research project funded by the Humanities in the European Research Area (HERA) JRP for Creativity and Innovation. Focusing on the electronic literature community in Europe as a model of networked creativity and innovation in practice, ELMCIP is intended both to study the formation and interactions of that community and also to further electronic literature research and practice in Europe. The ELMCIP Knowledge Base is a publicly accessible online database that focuses on capturing core bibliographic data and archival materials about authors, creative works, critical writing, events, organizations, publishers, and teaching resources and on making visible the connections between creative and scholarly activities in the field.

   This presentation will focus on three aspects of the ELMCIP Knowledge Base in particular:

   1) Cross-referencing to make visible the emergence of creative and scholarly communities of practice

3. 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.
