Abstract

In the context of education in cyberculture and the popularization of social networks on the internet, we are living the phenomenon of narratives of connected subjects. One of these narratives is the production of literary texts on Twitter. In this scenario, the objective of the article was to investigate the manifestations of distinctive aspects of interactive network writing in the production of micro-fictions on Twitter. The method used was qualitative in a analytical and interpretative way. For data analysis, the Discursive Textual Analysis (DTA) technique and Social Network Analysis (ARS) principles were used. The central argument is that twitterature, the literary production on Twitter, is a pedagogy of networked writing that is built mainly through shared experience and online learning mobilization. The article concludes that the production of the literary text in a network contributes to the circulation of ways of being and sharing aesthetic content, building and mobilizing pedagogies as a way of producing contemporary cultures.
