Storytelling in the Digital World explores new, emerging narrative
practices as they are enacted on digital platforms such as Amazon,
Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. Contributors' online ethnographies
investigate a wide range of themes including the nature of
processes of transformation and recontextualization of offline
events into digital narratives; the effects of digital anonymity
and pseudonymity on narrative practices; the strategies through
which virtual communities discursively work together to solidify
and negotiate their sociocultural identities; the tensions between
the affordances that characterize different online media and the
communicative needs of users; the structures and modes in which
virtual users construct and enact participatory practices in these
environments; and the significance of different spatiotemporal
dimensions in the encoding, sharing and appreciation of stories.
More generally, the volume engages with some of the theoretical and
methodological challenges that the growing presence of digital
technologies and media poses to narrative analysis. Originally
published as special issue of Narrative Inquiry 27:2 (2017)
