Abstract

Background: The spatial turn in literary studies and digital humanities highlights the need to reassess how colonial space is constructed through the interaction between narrative and cartographic knowledge. Objective: This study examines how colonial spatial imagination is produced, contested, and differentiated in Robinson Crusoe (1719) and Max Havelaar (1860) through digital literary cartography. Method: Using a qualitative digital humanities design, the research integrates close textual analysis with historical cartographic materials and spatial metadata, focusing on Atlantic navigation maps, West Indies and New England coastal maps, and administrative maps of Java and Bantam. Results: The findings show that Robinson Crusoe aligns with a cartographic logic of enclosure and maritime circulation, reinforced by island, Atlantic, and West Indies maps that normalize spatial mastery. In contrast, Max Havelaar articulates a fragmented administrative geography, revealed through maps of Java and the Dutch East Indies that expose bureaucratic segmentation and ethical tension. Comparative re-mapping demonstrates divergent cartographic epistemologies shaped by exploration versus governance. Implication: Digital literary cartography reveals colonial space as an ideological construct rather than a neutral backdrop. Novelty: The study offers a comparative Global South–oriented cartographic reading that repositions maps as critical epistemic texts in colonial literature.

Abstract

Background: The rapid expansion of social media platforms has transformed literary production, enabling algorithmic poetry to emerge as a digital-native form that challenges conventional notions of authorship, meaning, and aesthetic value. Objective: This study examines how Indonesian Twitter bot poetry operates as a poetics of algorithmic excess, with attention to formal patterns, semantic instability, and platform-mediated authorship. Method: Using a qualitative digital humanities approach, the research analyzes a corpus of 240 poems generated by an Indonesian Twitter poetry bot through close reading, pattern identification, and platform-aware interpretation. Results: The findings show that algorithmic repetition and structural fragmentation function as dominant formal strategies, displacing expressive intentionality with procedural regularity. Semantic noise and randomness produce episodic meaning, shifting interpretive responsibility from author to reader. Platform circulation redistributes authorship among algorithms, users, and infrastructural systems, positioning Twitter/X as a co-author in literary production. Implications: Algorithmic poetry constitutes a legitimate literary practice shaped by platform capitalism and posthuman creativity. Novelty: The study offers a Global South perspective on digital poetics by theorizing algorithmic excess as an aesthetic principle within platform-mediated literature.

Abstract

The rise of hypertext fiction has transformed narrative structures, challenging traditional reading behaviors and comprehension strategies. This study aims to investigate how readers navigate and engage with Patchwork Girl, a seminal work in hypertext fiction, focusing on navigation patterns, motivations, and their impact on comprehension and engagement. Employing a qualitative case study approach, the research involved 110 undergraduate English majors, using observations, interviews, and thematic analysis to uncover patterns and insights. Findings revealed three dominant navigation strategies—linear, exploratory, and random—each influenced by motivations such as curiosity, thematic alignment, and a desire for agency. Linear navigation resulted in higher comprehension, while exploratory navigation fostered moderate engagement, and random navigation led to cognitive overload and fragmented understanding. These findings underscore the importance of balancing narrative complexity with user guidance in hypertext design, offering valuable implications for digital storytelling and educational applications.

Abstract

The integration of generative e-poetry like Taroko Gorge into literary education addresses the growing need to bridge traditional and digital literacy in contemporary learning environments. This study aims to explore how Taroko Gorge enhances students’ engagement and critical thinking, and to identify the possible strategies for its integration into curricula. Using a qualitative approach, this research combines observations, documentation, and interviews with 85 English Literature students at a university in East Java. The findings of this study reveal that Taroko Gorge fosters high levels of engagement and analytical rigor while challenging students to adapt to dynamic textual interpretations. Effective integration strategies include interactive discussions and scaffolded analysis, which align with its generative nature. However, limitations in interdisciplinary applications and sample diversity suggest the need for further research. This study contributes to pedagogical innovation by positioning e-poetry as a transformative tool for modern literary education.

Abstract

Virtual Reality (VR) has emerged as a transformative medium, offering immersive storytelling experiences compared to traditional 2D films. This study aims to compare emotional and physiological responses elicited by Virtual Reality (VR) and Youtube (YT) versions of Aladin: Escape the Cave of Wonders. Using a mixed-methods approach, emotional data were collected through PANAS (Positive and Negative Affect Schedule), while physiological responses such as skin temperature (SKT), heart rate (HR), and respiratory patterns were recorded. Results indicate that VR elicits stronger emotional engagement, with significant increases in negative affect (e.g., fear and nervousness) and higher HR compared to YT films. Scene-specific analyses reveal that immersive environments amplify emotions during intense scenes, supported by physiological markers of heightened arousal. This study underscores VR’s potential as a narrative medium and provides insights into its application for enhancing audience engagement across genres.

Abstract

This article explores the multimodal circulation of Indonesian literary texts through television and digital adaptations, focusing on their implications for the conceptualization and cultural valuation of literature in the digital age. The technological boom and evolving reading practices have shaped how literature is disseminated, especially through intersemiotic media platforms. Drawing on theories of cyberculture and media convergence (David Bell dan Tim Dwyer), this study analyzes examples such as the adaptation of Laskar Pelangi by Andrea Hirata into film and television, Bumi Manusia by Pramoedya Ananta Toer into cinema, and Tenggelamnya Kapal Van Der Wijck by Hamka into both screen and digital fandoms. These cases reveal a cultural ecosystem in which television, internet platforms, and user-generated content converge to sustain literary texts and cultivate new modes of engagement. The shift from print-centered authority to interactive and collaborative reinterpretation challenges traditional notions of originality and authorship while expanding access to literature across social strata.

Abstract

Background: The expansion of Indonesian novels across historical periods has produced complex and overlapping thematic formations that remain difficult to map systematically using conventional close-reading approaches. Objective: This study aims to identify dominant themes, trace their temporal shifts, and examine conceptual overlap among Indonesian novels through a computational framework. Method: Employing a digital humanities approach, the study analyzes a corpus of 30 Indonesian novels (1920-2022) using concept mining, CF-IDF weighting, semantic similarity measurement, and network analysis. Results: The findings reveal dominant thematic clusters centered on social inequality, nationalism, gender, religion, and modernization; clear temporal shifts in thematic emphasis across literary periods; and dense conceptual overlap, with social inequality functioning as a central thematic hub. Theme–theme projection and betweenness centrality analysis further demonstrate that thematic meaning emerges through relational structures rather than isolated categories. Implication: These results strengthen empirical literary analysis by integrating computational rigor with interpretive criticism. Novelty: This study introduces a replicable, network-based thematic mapping model for Indonesian novels, advancing computational literary studies in the Indonesian context.

Abstract

Background: The contemporary digital transition has transformed Indonesian literary heritage by shifting literary production from physical manuscripts to born-digital artifacts, while archival infrastructures and metadata practices struggle to keep pace with this change. Objective: This study aims to examine how material transformation, metadata inequality, and digital writing practices collectively reshape literary preservation and authorship in Indonesia. Method: Using a qualitative interpretive approach grounded in digital humanities and archival studies, the research analyzes a multi-layered corpus comprising institutional archives, author-managed digital materials, and platform-based literary outputs through comparative archival analysis and visual-analytic mapping. Results: The findings reveal three interrelated patterns: a dominance of born-digital literary materials accompanied by low archival stability, a stratified metadata landscape that privileges institutional archives over platform-based environments, and a structural tension between high textual productivity and fragile preservation in digital authorship practices. Implication: These patterns indicate that digital literary abundance does not guarantee cultural memory without coordinated archival mediation. Novelty: This study introduces a visual–relational framework that reframes Indonesian literary heritage as an infrastructural and authorially contingent process within the digital transition.
