Electronic Literature: Contexts and Poetics

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingsChapterpeer-review

Abstract

Electronic literature, essentially, must be electronic and literary. Even if we cannot define the literary, we can at least recognize it, and, from recognition, we can begin to build meaning. This chapter attempts to do just that: offer readers an account of some of the contexts that suggest literature that is inherently digital and extrapolate from those contexts a poetics suited to works of this nature.
