Claire Taylor, Thea Pitman (eds.): Latin American Cyberculture and Cyberliterature (2007)
Filed under book | Tags: · blogging, cyberculture, electronic literature, hypertext, internet, latin america, literature, media culture
This highly-innovative volume provides the first sustained academic focus on cyberliterature and cyberculture in Latin America, investigating the ways in which this form of cultural production is providing new configurations of subjects, narrative voices, and even political agency. Despite cyberculture’s spread throughout the Hispanic diaspora, much of the influence of this new discipline on Latin American culture remains undocumented. This timely volume focuses on the inclusivity of this new scholarship and provides extensive geographical coverage of topics as diverse as Chicano border writing and Brazilian and Argentine cybercultural phenomena.
