ΕVENT ABSTRACT

This workshop is an introduction to digital literature. By the end of the workshop participants should be able to: a) recognize genres and forms of contemporary digital literature; b) describe the interplay between various material levels of digital textuality; c) analyse the structure, language, and forms of digital works; d) understand the role of software in electronic literature; e) expand their critical awareness of contemporary digital culture.
