THE EMERGENCE OF ELECTRONIC LITERATURE: THRESHOLD, TOOLS, TYPES AND TRENCHES IN ITS TRANSCONTINENTAL WORLD
Main Article Content
Abstract
The evolution of digital literature has transformed the conventional way of storytelling by integrating text, audio, images, video and interactive content which can engross a person completely in it. This article explores the dynamic shift from print changes to hyperlinks and multimedia integration. The emergence of augmented (enhanced) reality and virtual (not in physical or concrete form) reality amplifies this evolution, blurring the boundaries between fiction and reality. As technology continues to advance it also challenges the conventional notions of authorship and reader participation, fostering a dynamic and ever-changing literary landscape.
