Informationen zum Autor By Marcel O'Gorman Klappentext 'E-Crit is a bold attempt to redefine scholarly communication in an era characterized by the arrival of digital media. The problem that the author addresses is this: New technologies of communication and representation (the Internet, computer graphics) seem to be implicated in fundamental shifts in popular media forms and in the delivery of scientific and even scholarly texts. Many critics in the humanities are exploring these issues in their work. However, the form of the work itself remains largely unchanged and unexplored. This is the paradox that O'Gorman seeks to confront, and his approach is both radical and practical. He attempts both explain and exemplify his E-Crit approach - to understand how digital writing can be different from linear writing for print, and to train his students in a new form of digital representation.'-Jay Bolter Zusammenfassung . E-Crit is thus essential reading for anyone concerned with the practice - and future - of the humanities in higher education.
