Electronic Literature on Humanities Commons 1 year, 11 months ago
New arguments found ground after the revolution of Gutenberg and importance of
reading being elevated in comparison to addressing, delivering original hand
writings to masses by copying (Warschauer, 2007) and after centuries, reaching
the point of electronic literacy with many innovations. These arguments reached
a point suggesting that electronic literacy has also reached its “end”. Can the
question “is history backtracking in the new millennium” as suggested by Eco
(2012) can help us while seeking the answer for the question “what comes after
electronic literacy?” In this study, societies that are yet to experience electronic
literacy shall be evaluated with a critical perspective under the scope of the
example of Turkey, along with new variations that may come about after electronic
literacy.
