Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to present the current state of research on electronic literature in Poland. By way of introduction, the author presents various phenomena in literature at the turn of the 21st century, which originated from the intersection of literature and new technologies, especially Internet. In subsequent parts, the author presents major terminological and methodological problems: the difference between “literature on Internet” and electronic literature, digital literature and liberature, contexts for the description of hypertext and the definition of cyberpoetry. The author attempts at sketching the research fields and pointing at issues hitherto left behind by the theoreticians of electronic literature.
