1. Communitizing Electronic Literature

   Electronic literature is an important evolving field of artistic practice and literary study. It is a sector of digital humanities focused specifically on born-digital literary artifacts, rather than on using the computer and the network to redistribute, analyze, or recontextualize artifacts of print culture. Works of electronic literature appeal to configurative reading practices. The field of electronic literature is based on a gift economy and developing a network-based literary culture built on the collaborative practices of a globally distributed community of artists, writers, and scholars. This article situates the development of the field of electronic literature within academe, some of the institutional challenges currently confronting the field, and its potential for further development.

2. From Theo Lutz to Netzliteratur. The Development of German-Language Electronic Literature

   How and where would we have to begin if we want to bring the rather diverse
   German-language scene of net literature to a closer attention of our European colleagues?
   This definitely is no easy task, since today there are virtually no forums and archives of
   German-language net literature existing anymore. Therefore it may not be possible to get an
   accurate picture of the last 20 years’ net literature. Many sites and forums have been deleted
   from the net, while others remain virtually inactive for years and have to be perceived as
   internet archive corpses. A few are still active and provide material for current discussions.
