Abstract

Based on the concept of literacy as a set of social practices that use writing, to which technologies are essentially linked, current research presents modifications caused by the use of the hypertext as a new writing space primarily extant in cyberculture. Changes in the production and reception of literary forms, particularly digital poetry, are specifically analyzed. The article analyses how digital poetry is a poetic form that associates different semiotic systems which demand multimedium and multimode literacies from authors and readers, or rather, usage in new writing practices that relate and produce meanings for sounds, images, movements and verbal language through the characteristics of digital technologies. The article discusses issues on literacy in printed and digital writing space, composition elements of poetry in cyberspace, emphasizing analyses of digital poems and other issues on the new literacies required for the reading and the production of this fictional form.
