Overview & Synopsis

Digital Semiopoetics presents the changes which have occurred in the way of existing of sign, text and discourse in the digital environment. It characterises text and discourse which have been shaped digitally. It describes and names the significant re-modellings in textual structures (e.g. narrative, figures) present in the digital representations of these structures. It presents new textual figures and strategies based on movement and interactivity. It proves that what constitutes the foundation of these changes are the creation and properties of the digital sign, which differs from other signs, although the existence of this change was possible thanks to the development and properties of digital technologies. It demonstrates that a digital sign delineates a new situation of a semiotic text, which leads to changes in its poetics, including especially those co-creating it in the aspect of communication. It points to the inseparability of the aspects of a semiotic, poetic (meaning-creating, creative) and communicative text and discourse. It characterises electronic literariness on the basis of digital pieces (e-literature in particular). It builds a theory of digital text and discourse co-creating the metaverse culture.
