Talk:Afternoon, a story

refactor old topic and move
One can point to many progenitors before afternoon, including the much better known Crowther and Woods _adventure_ and the Swarthmore College DUNGE, not to mention toys and games in BASIC, PLATO, and other systems. But afternoon is clearly a different beast, and the notability of Elfland Catacombs needs to be better argued. It is not cited, for example, in any of the major monographs -- Landow's HYPERTEXT 3.0, Joyce OF TWO MINDS, Douglas END OF BOOKS, Gaggi FROM TEXT TO HYPERTEXT, Aarseth CYBERTEXT, Nelson LITERARY MACHINES. I think it has never been cited in the ACM Hypertext Conference (1987-present). Tellingly, it was not reviewed in Coover's famous NY Times reviews, which tried to review every published hypertext fiction. MarkBernstein 18:03, 12 February 2007 (UTC)


 * As there has been no objection for 6 months, I've removed the Elfland Catacombs reference. Suggestion: a page on early hypertext or early interactive fiction could discuss all these early cyberliterary works.MarkBernstein 15:56, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
