Tecnologías de la Información y Comunicación como fuentes de la poética en la novelística española actual

The present paper is aimed to present theories that analyze the influence of information and communication technologies on the poetics of narrative works and applies the commented analytical models to the analysis of novels written by contemporary Spanish authors (Vicente Luis Mora, Jorge Carrión, Germán Sierra, Agustín Fernández Mallo, Elvira Navarro, Ana Pomares y Alberto Olmos, among others). The article outlines the theories of both Spanish (Fernández Porta, Mora, Carrión) and internationally acclaimed researchers (Wallace, Manovich, Hayles) and explores their applicability in the research on contemporary Spanish narrative that can be perceived as hybrid. Within this context, the paper is aimed at determining the relationship between narrative strategies and techniques derived from television aesthetics as well as the impact information and communication technologies have on the textuality of literary works.
