Exploring Paratexts in Digital Contexts

This day-long workshop revolves around the notion of paratext, a literary theory ﬁrst presented by French narratologist Gérard Genette in 1987 (Seuils / English translation "Paratexts. Thresholds of Interpretation" 1997).
Originally envisioned in relation to manuscripts and printed text, the theory of paratext ambitioned to describe how texts materialise through the distribution and presentation of textual and contextual information that accompanies and structures text.
In digital contexts, the paratextual dimension tends to exhibit new qualities.This workshop focuses on paratext theory in digital realms and explore how paratext may oﬀer a common ground for scholars in information and library science and in other humanistic disciplines.
