Summary/Abstract: This article presents ways in which memory can exist in digital texts. We characterize digital representations of the work of human memory, the influence of digital technology and changes in the digital narration on realization of mnemonic function of the text (e.g. the use of the perceptive linearity, intersemiotic repetition, engaging the user in the creation of texts). Structural tricks and textual strategies used to create the textual representation of different existing forms of memory are analyzed on the example of digital poetry and hypertext narration. These are for instance: the remembering, the mentioning, the recalling, the presenting of the past.
