MARGINALIA E HIPERTEXTO: O PERSONAGEM COMO CRÍTICO EM S. OU O NAVIO DE TESEU

Résumé

From the precepts of electronic literature addressed by Katherine Hayles and Janet H. Murray, we aim to understand how a physical literary book, in all its materiality, can be connected to the poetics of the digital world. To do so, we analyzed the work S. also known as The Ship of Theseus, by J. J. Abrams and Doug Dorst. The use of this work is justified on account of its theme regarding the construction of identity, which ends up bringing different relationships with readers of the work. This happens because the investigative act on the identity of the authors and the characters elevates the reader to the level of character-literary critic in the work. Fact allowed only because of the elements of electronic poetics included in the writing method.
