  1. Regards Croisés: Perspectives on Digital Literature

    from the publisher: What happens to literature in an age of digital technology? Regards Croisés: Perspectives on Digital Literature provides an answer, with a collection of cutting-edge critical essays on literature gone digital. Regards Croisés is an important addition to existing research on digital literature, and will appeal to scholars of electronic writing, digital art, humanities computing, media and communication, and others interested in the field. It offers a significant advance in the field through its wide-angle perspective that globalizes digital literature and diversifies the current critical paradigms. Regards Croisés shows how digital literature connects with traditions and future directions of reading and writing communities all over the world. With contributions by authors from eight countries and three continents, the collection presents points of view on a transcontinental practice of digital literature. Regards Croisés also opens dialogues with expanded critical paradigms of digital literature, beyond earlier critical concern with the aesthetics of the screen as a space of hypertext links.

  2. Literatura digital. Cul de Sac

    ¿La literatura electrónica está en un callejón sin salida, en un cul du sac sin escapatoria?Para el gran público sólo existe la literatura digitalizada. Los e-books, los e-readers, la industria de la autopublicación, las tabletas, las bibliotecas digitales, las editoriales en red, etc. Para que pueda revivir y encontrar una plasmación real, viva, que importe al mundo, deben darse las siguientes condiciones: 1. Que el corpus de obras digitales (no digitalizadas) de calidad y populares aumente exponencialmente. 2. Que el texto, que las palabras, vuelvan a estar en el centro de la obra, algo que la anteriormente citada van Dijk menciona al hablar de las críticas que Simanowski hace al arte digital en cuanto que canibaliza el texto, que olvida lo realmente importante, la historia, para ocultarla con unos efectos especiales que a pocos interesan. 3. Que exista una crítica profesional severa sobre las obras digitales.

  3. Lit Mods

    Seiça describes modification as an art practice meant to subvert and divert from what we—as readers, spectators, and also consumers—expect from technological apparati and platforms. He extends the study of mods to “lit mods”—including art, games, and literature.

    In particular, Seiça notes that the learning curve for modding has changed: where in the past, it may have taken a certain amount of user knowledge, modification may now be automated (for instance, through Instagram filters). More importantly, he asks what lit mods show us about literary practice and literary criticism. Where fast-moving content—fast-moving e-literature and e-poetry included—may defy interpretation, so analysis is strengthened by breaking down their mechanisms.

  4. Digital Literary Arts - Scandinavian E-Texts: Criticism, Theory, and Practice

    Electronic literature (e-lit) constitutes one of the most innovative and exciting literary forms occurring today; it is the unique child of this new technological age. Scandinavian e-lit is no exception, yet it has frequently been overlooked by literary academics in both the United States and Scandinavia. This dissertation investigates how Scandinavian e-lit engages with printed Scandinavian literature, and how critical analysis of Scandinavian literature can benefit from an understanding of e-lit. In this dissertation I argue that, far from relegation to the outer margins of Scandinavian literary research and studies, Scandinavian e-lit, and scholarship on such works, ought to occupy a central position in the field, alongside print-based counterparts. Such a shift in focus would create a new vantage point from which Scandinavianists could analyze canonical and contemporary works of print-based Scandinavian literature.
