Literature and writers in the digital age: a small scale survey of contemporary Croatian writers' organization and preservation practices
Authors, writers and other creative workers today are faced with the (r)evolution of digital technology and media that slowly changes and challenges the way they create, disseminate and preserve their work. The purpose of this paper is to explore the attitudes, habits and practices of contemporary Croatian writers on a small scale sample in terms of the creation, organisation and preservation of digital documents and various literary forms. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews with nine contemporary Croatian writers and analysed through narrative analysis of the interview transcripts. The research highlighted areas that need to be more thoroughly considered when we are dealing with issues of personal digital archiving, digital legacies and the preservation of the digital cultural heritage in general. In depth interviews with respondents indicated one particularly important issue: a lack of awareness that contemporary authors define today’s cultural landscape and that preserving the context of their work in time is as important as preserving the work itself.
