Abstract:
Starting from the position that technology is an organic part of the cultural multisystem, one cannot speak of technology’s impact on other systems, including literature, as a separate effect. Their interaction is, in fact, foundational, if we consider not only writing technologies but also writing itself as a technology, even as a machine in contemporary literary theory. On the other hand, the significance of the paradigm shift introduced by digitalization and networking is so great that it rearranges writing, textuality, reading, and, obviously, literature itself and the concept of literariness. Thus, in this chapter, we briefly examine the changes brought about by the digital condition and networking at these levels: hypertextuality, the electronic text as both text and object, space as spacetime in networked texts, its production and reading, as well as literary and non-literary textuality.
