the reader’s interaction forms the basis of poetry – poetry depends on the reader’s interpretation to have meaning.
the interactive elements of digital literature create new literary qualities – Not only about reader reading the words on the page, it is also about the reader interacting with the content by deciding what to read and how to read it.
characteristics of classical print literature are preserved because of the strong sense of the author’s production – Although the reader is able to choose the path, it is still the author who creates the paths that the reader can choose from.
online works are still primarily based on examples from printed literature – Online newspapers, e-zines, online databases for scholarly works that exist in print.
