»Games and Literature« explores the intersections of literary studies and digital games. This volume examines how games function as narrative media, cultural artefacts, and objects of scholarly preservation. With perspectives from literary scholars, archivists, and game researchers, it highlights the evolving status of games within academia and cultural memory. Emphasising interdisciplinary approaches, the book addresses storytelling, archiving practices, and game analysis, contributing to ongoing debates on how cultural artefacts evolve through digital media.
