Interweaving Emojis, Poetry, And Narrative: Trends In French Electronic Literature

Abstract: The proliferation of digital communication platforms has facilitated the integration of emojis as a form of visual language alongside traditional literary elements such as poetry and narrative. However, the implications and significance of this trend remain underexplored in French electronic literature (French E-lit). This study examines the emerging trend of interweaving emojis, poetry, and narrative in this Context- Specific Field. The aim of this research is to analyze the incorporation of emojis into French electronic literature and investigate how they interact with poetic and narrative structures. The aim of the study is to ascertain the extent to which these symbols contribute to poetic and narrative structures, enriching the reader's experience and broadening the boundaries of traditional storytelling. This study is guided by a comprehensive theoretical framework that include digital literature theory, and visual semiotics. The research employs a qualitative research design to evaluate the aesthetic, emotional, and cultural dimensions of Emoji poetry in French E-Lit. The study findings reveal the pervasive and thoughtful integration of emojis as essential components of poetic expression, where these symbols serve not merely as decorative elements but as integral elements of the poem’s structure to create an interactive literary experience in the digital age.
