This book explores the media ecologies of literature - the ways in
which a literary text is interwoven in its material, technical,
performative, praxeological, affective, and discursive network and
which determine how it is experienced and interpreted. Through
novel approaches to the complex, contingent and interdependent
environments of literature, this volume demonstrates how questions
about the mediality of literature - particularly in the wake of
digitization - shed a new light on our understanding of textuality,
reading, platforms and reception processes. By drawing on recent
developments in advanced media theory, Media Ecologies of
Literature emphasizes the productivity of innovative
re-conceptualizations of literature as a medium in its own right.
In an intentionally wide historical scope, the essays engage with
literary texts from the Romantic to the contemporary period, from
Charlotte Smith and Oscar Wilde to A. L. Kennedy and Mark Z.
Danielewski, from the traditionally printed novel to audiobooks and
reading apps.
