Literature And Social Media (Literature And Contemporary Thought) - 9780415789035

Reading social media both in relation to literature, but also as a literary form in its own right, this lively guide demonstrates that social media platforms have produced their own unique and distinctive forms of creative expression. Bronwyn Thomas takes a unique approach examining how authors interact with readers, but also how social media is used to create an ongoing collaborative discourse. This 360 degree approach to the study of contemporary literary practices, cultures and communities will provide a timely account of the state of art, while also exploring the implications for traditional literary forms and practices and interrogating the rhetoric that so often accompanies discussion of the 'new' in this context--
