Opis

This book analyses digital literature as part of an ongoing literary tradition, emphasising continuities and approaching digital phenomena through pre-digital theory. It underscores the potential of digital literature as cultural expression rather than technological gadgetry providing an opportunity for re-reading and canonical theory
