Summary/Abstract: In 20th and 21st centuries, scientific and technological developments that have affected all areas of life have started a new era called “digital age”. One of the fields that have changed with the effect of digitalization is literature. This process leads to the birth of a new field called electronic literature. The spread of electronic literary works causes the need for new reading methods. Ergodic literature, which is the subject of this article, is a reading method that has been theorized with the increase of electronic texts. The framework of the concept will be formed based on Espen J. Aarseth’s Cybertext Perspectives on Ergodic Literature, definitions of hypertext and cybertext will be made, and their relationship with ergodic literature will be discussed. The main purpose of the study is to introduce the concept of ergodic literature to Turkish literature at the theoretical level.
