ABSTRACT


Electronic literature, commonly referred to as e-literature, is one of the major innovations that have occurred in the realm of literary creativity. As compared to conventional printed literature, e-literature involves interaction, media diversity, hypertext, and even participation of readers as an essential element of storytelling. Although these innovations provide greater scope for literary creativity, there are numerous issues that relate to e-literature from the perspective of law, including questions regarding authorship, ownership, copyright infringement, piracy, and preservation of digital literary works. This paper describes the evolution of e-literature, approaches to evaluation and interpretation of digital literary works, and copyright issues involved in their creation and publication.


Keywords: Electronic Literature; Copyright Infringement; Digital Copyright; Intellectual Property; Digital Preservation.
