Carmen Covito, writing, literature, technology (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31) |
 | | Carmen Covito, one of the "new" Italian authors of the 1990s, reflects the ideology of her "generation" of writers in her interest in transformations and the possibilities of "contamination" between genres, modes of writing, multimodal productions of literary works. |
| | Covito, who was among the first Italian authors to have an internet site, notes that our postmodern era is particularly concerned with multiplicity, with equalized and decentralized authority, which is actually reflected in the structure of the World Wide Web. |
| | The second part of the paper provides an example of a contemporary Italian woman writer, Carmen Covito, who promotes the interactive dimension, the "layering" or "branching" possibilities of hypertext.The aim of the paper is to assess, through the case study, to what extent choosing to write/publish "electronically" influences the literary direction of a writer. |
