The first two sections—\"Ends, Beginnings,\" \"Poetics, Polemics\"—work their way through the key insights and concepts developed since the inception of the field. The other two sections—\"Materialities, Ontologies,\" \"Economies, Precarities\"—provide key essays on how electronic literature’s formats have helped to define contemporary digital life. Including an annotated bibliography of major texts in this field, this is an invaluable resource for those interested in where literature is going.
