• Call for papers | Writing and New Languages | Graphos 1/2025

  When we think of writing, we tend to think of it in its most traditional form, as a form of expression that privileges the use of writing tools such as ink pens and sheets of paper. However, new digital languages have introduced forms of communication and interaction that have expanded the conventional notion of writing. One of the first effects has been the democratisation of writing: with access to the web, anyone can now post thoughts, opinions, reflections, personal stories online. This accessibility has given rise to a diversity of voices and writing styles, alternative forms of expression and new openings in a field that was previously limited to the elite who wrote professionally.
