1. Digital Poetics: The Making of E-Poetries

   In this revolutionary and highly original work, poet-scholar Glazier investigates the ways in which computer technology has influenced and transformed the writing and dissemination of poetry. In Digital Poetics, Loss Glazier argues that the increase in computer technology and accessibility, specifically the World Wide Web, has created a new and viable place for the writing and dissemination of poetry. Glazier's work not only introduces the reader to the current state of electronic writing but also outlines the historical and technical contexts out of which electronic poetry has emerged and demonstrates some of the possibilities of the new medium. Glazier examines three principal forms of electronic textuality: hypertext, visual/kinetic text, and works in programmable media. He considers avant-garde poetics and its relationship to the on-line age, the relationship between web "pages" and book technology, and the way in which certain kinds of web constructions are in and of themselves a type of writing. With convincing alacrity, Glazier argues that the materiality of electronic writing has changed the idea of writing itself.

6. E-CyberDigital Poetry: To Grasp or to Build a Genre Identity through a Term’s Choice?

   In recent years, the field of digital poetry had at least three major critical monographs
   discussing the genre and its state-of-the-art. Loss Pequeño Glazier (2002), Brian Kim
   Stefans (2003) and Christopher T. Funkhouser (2007) have not only introduced new
   critical perspectives, but have also discussed the genre’s problematic definition and its
   denominations’ variety: e-poetry, cyberpoetry and digital poetry.
   Considering Theo Lutz’s Stochastische Texte (1959) as the first work of
   programmable poetry, one should note the genre’s long history of practice in spite of
   its shorter history of critical writing. Therefore, the way authors have been coining
   and defining the genre itself claims for a theorization standpoint and helps shaping the
   field towards a specific path and perhaps a crystalized historical construction.
   Do the referenced terms position their authors in a similar flow of thought? By
   following a concept’s trajectory and the author’s choice, one must consider the fact
   that its crystallization will shape future critical writing. In this sense, it is important to

7. Moving Text in Avant-garde Poetry: Towards a Poetics of Textual Motion

   Recent innovations in digital environments may suggest that the possibility to manipulate the literal movement of the text could be one of the essential variables separating digital literature from printed literature. This bipolar distinction between digital and print media hides, however, a complex historical background. A fuller comprehension of movement as a variable in literature calls for the clarification of the historical development from the "analogies of movement" in printed literature to the innovations in video art, experimental film and multimedia poetry.

   In classifying types of textual movement at least the following questions are relevant: What can be kinetic in the poetic text? How does the movement take place? Where does it take place? What is the result of the movement? And finally, what (or who) makes the text move? The article develops conceptual divisions that make answering these questions possible and thus helps to make the question of the specificity of digitally manipulated movement more precise.
