The present text discusses the theoretical foundations and methodological significance of Ewa Szczęsna’s 2018 Polish-language monograph Digital Semiopoetics in light of the rise of a wide variety of digital discourses that gave birth to a radical transformation of our semiosphere. Successfully translating the literary-theoretical reflection upon signification processes onto the digital plane, Szczęsna offers her reader an invaluable theoretical toolbox, applicable to literature, art, and other forms of semiotic interaction that were “born digital.” Proposing new solutions, however, the Author remains in a constant dialog with the mentors responsible for our legacy of semiotic reflection, thereby building a bridge between the “traditional” and “digital” forms of creativity and modes of interaction.
