  1. First and Second Waves of Indian Electronic Literature

    In her seminal book Electronic Literature: New Horizons for the Literary (2008), Katherine Hayles historicizes electronic literary works as first generation and second generation published before and after the advent of Web respectively. In addition to this, Leonardo Flores, in his essay “Third Generation Electronic Literature” (2019), defines three waves of electronic literature. He discusses the electronic literary works, which are mostly hypertext, kinetic and text-based, published between 1952 and 1995 as first generation, the multifaceted features of second generation works started after the rise of Web in 1995 and continues to the present. Third generation works encompass of social media networks, apps, mobile and Web API services began around 2005. These works have made important contributions to understanding the field of Western electronic literature. On the other hand, scholars have discoursed about the non-western electronic literary works and emphasised about their generations.

  2. Looking Back while Moving Forward: The Case of Concrete Poetry and Sankofa

    This article considers the intersection between African oral tradition and electronic literature by exploring the potential of Sankofa to interact with concrete poetry in an electronic space. Sankofa is an example of the Adinkra, a set of symbols that were originally created and used by the Akan in West Africa. These symbols have literary value which this article looks at in ways similar to concrete poetry; examining Sankofa as concrete poetry in an electronic context enables a simultaneous dovetailing with as well as convergence from oral and print based modes of engaging with the text: aspects of oral tradition influence this exploration.

  10. The Possibilities of Illness Narratives in Virtual Reality for Bodies at the Margins

    Through decades of scholarly analysis and application, the practice of illness narratives has been established as an effective therapeutic intervention for dealing with illness-related emotional well-being (Couser; Frank; Irvine and Charon). Scholars of illness narratives argue that the medium works to bring agency back to the body following the neoliberal relinquishing of one’s life story in the patient-physician encounter. Contemporary scholarly work is mapping the growth of illness narrative forms from the traditional book to emerging digital-born narratives; however, there is limited research on the medium’s intersection with virtual reality (VR) technologies. Working with Marie-Laure Ryan’s theoretical framework of possible worlds theory, this paper explores the transformative potential of VR illness narratives for pathologized identities found when VR resists the call to fall into one of two categories: pure transhumanism where VR reality is emancipated from actual reality or an artificial experience that has no lasting effect on the self.
