Text author: Небојша Ковачевић
The problem of books and reading is being analyzed in the light of changed paradigms of reading and anthropological consequences of new media. Relationship of classical to virtual/electronic is being viewed from the standpoint of Aristotle’s onthological difference between reality and possibility. Prospects and difficulties of e-literature as a literature of possibilities, as well as consequences of dematerialization are beeing examined. By problematizing the term “virtual” and its entities, the author speaks of “new reader’s” fate in the new virtual world.
