Course Discription : The course is a response to the digital technologies that are changing all aspects of how we access, analyze, and conceptualize information. This course investigates how this technology and the “information culture” it produces affect the way we read, study, and understand literature. The course aims to answer some of the following questions: What happens to literature and “the literary” in an age of digital technology? And, what is digital literature and how do we contextualize it within a history of literature and literary aesthetic? Since in recent times there is a gap between literature and the new media that have enhanced tradition and aesthetic of print literature along with the Web and authoring programs that have stimulated creative outbursts of experimentation in narrative and poetic forms. The course is an introductory course that examines a varied collection of electronic literature and genres in order to understand the current state of this new literary field and its relation to print literature and traditional concepts of literary study.
