Rede conceitual da literatura digital brasileira

Abstract

This research aims at increasing the reflections developed during the Scientific Initiation produced between August 2019 and October 2020, financed, partially, by CNPq and entitled Literatura Digital Brasileira: Cartografia da Produção Crítica. This way, it was proposed the construction of a Conceptual Network of Brazilian Digital Literature based on data (graphic, tables and analisis) achieved through the mapping results of critical writings (articles and essays published in scientific brazilian journals), carried out throughout the first research. It has been made, through the project development, a reflection on the theoretical genesis and on a reflexive path of terminologies which have been presented in the literature to define and analyze emerging brazilian literary digital production, which are: digital literature, electronic literature and cyberliterature. The effort is justified by the non-consolidated theoretical and critical metalanguage on digital literature, meanwhile, in the brazilian scenario, the reflections brought by its specificities are insufficient. We based our efforts on an academic researcher from the University of Stanford Franco Moretti’s methodological theory presented in his book A literatura vista de longe (2008), in which he suggests the distant reading method in order to analyze literature through graphic, maps and trees investigation. This research is a part of the discussions developed by the research group (CNPq) “Observatório da Literatura Digital Brasileira”.
