The aim at the core of this book is a synthesis of increasingly
popular and culturally significant forms of digital literature on
the one hand, and established literary and critical theory on the
other: reading digital texts through the lens of canonical theory,
but also reading this more traditional theory through the lens of
digital texts and related media. In a field which has often
regarded the digital as apart from traditional literature and
theory, this book highlights continuities in order to analyse
digital literature as part of a longer literary tradition. Using
examples from social media to video games and works particularly by
postmodern and poststructuralist theorists, Digital Literature and
Critical Theory contextualises digital forms among their analogue
precursors and traces ongoing social developments which find
expression in these cultural phenomena, including power dynamics
between authors and readers, the individual in (post-)modernity,
consumerism, and the potential for intersubjective exchange.
