Summary/Abstract: Musiał explores the main trends in today’s digitisation processes and their impact on the written word, on reading and writing practices, on literature, literary research and the humanities. Starting with an analysis of Derrida’s essay “Before the Law,” Musiał goes on to question the emerging “law of literature” which is determined by digitisation – a cultural development whose scale and significance are comparable to the changes brought about by Gutenberg’s invention of the printing press in the fifteenth century.
