We live in an age where language and screens continue to collide for creative purposes, giving rise to new forms of digital literatures and literary video games. Towards a Digital Poetics explores this relationship between word and computer, querying what it is that makes contemporary fictions like Dear Esther and All the Delicate Duplicates-both ludic and literary-different from their print-based predecessors.

James O'Sullivan lectures at University College Cork (National University of Ireland). He has previously held faculty positions at the University of Sheffield and Pennsylvania State University. His research has been published in a variety of interdisciplinary journals and collections, including Digital Scholarship in the Humanities, Literary Studies in a Digital Age, and the Electronic Book Review. He is the author of several collections of poetry, including Courting Katie (2017), and the Founding Editor of New Binary Press.
