Situating work by pioneers in the field of electronic literature alongside emergent artists and scholars from around the world, the book draws a transversal and provides new ways of approaching born-digital literature through a focus on contexts (social, institutional, theoretical), forms (aesthetic, poetic, medial), and practices (pedagogy, preservation, publishing). This is a book that can be used for teaching students of all levels interested in understanding the current state of literary studies. * Jessica Pressman, Associate Professor of English and Comparative Literature, San Diego State University, USA *\u003cbr\u003eAs digital humanities scholarship becomes increasingly involved with digital arts and culture, this publication offers a treasure trove of examples of the integration of these fields. In their collection, \u003ci\u003eElectronic Literature as Digital Humanities: Contexts, Forms, and Practices\u003c\/i\u003e, Dene Grigar and James O’Sullivan have assembled a variety of scholarly approaches to the natural relationship between electronic literature and digital humanities. The essays expand on traditional strategies in humanities research such as deep history, tracing both the print and computer origins of e-lit, and the extent of global presence. The works also examine remarkable instances of digital practice and form. The scope and the specificity of the book make it an excellent resource for researchers. * M.D. Coverley, author of Califia (2000)\/\/Marjorie Coverley Luesebrink, Electronic Literature Organization, USA *\u003cbr\u003eAfter Goethe imagined a world literature in formation, Karl Marx predicted its rise, and Franco Moretti mapped its whereabouts, is such a thing realizable at last in digital environments? Is electronic literature, ignored by English Departments and all but a few Creative Writing Programs, ready to be integrated into the Digital Humanities? There is certainly no shortage of candidates for an emerging world literature in this gathering of multi-national talents by Dene Grigar and James O’Sullivan; no shortage of languages, cultural backgrounds, heritage and creative contexts.  Emerging genres like Interactive Fiction are said to express a multivariate \u003ci\u003eworld mode \u003c\/i\u003e(Montfort), one that could well replace national one-sidedness and resituate local literatures. We are beginning now to look at literary works written in the form of a computer program. Recombinant, database, codework and network fictions (Seaman, Manovich, Marino, Ciccoricco); collective imaginaries (Pullinger and Armstrong); aesthetic animism (Jhave); nonlinear, nonconscious,  affective, and emergent significations (Hayles, Rettberg and Coover); sound no less than sighted texts (Luers). We have here, in this volume, sustained scholarly engagement with locative media, spatial narratives, augmented realities that display an aesthetic, geographical, and linguistic diversity never so apparent in earlier formations of the \"Humanities.\" At the least, there will be (as there have always been) literary suggestions of \"some world other than the one we inhabit\" (Moulthrop). * Joseph Tabbi, Professor of American Literature, University of Bergen, Norway *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAbout the Editors \u003c\/i\u003e Electronic Literature as Digital Humanities: An Introduction  \u003ci\u003eDene Grigar \u003c\/i\u003e   \u003cb\u003eSection I \u003c\/b\u003eContexts 1.
