Abstract

This article delves into the profound impact of algorithms on the landscape of Global English Literary and Cultural Studies. It meticulously examines how these computational processes are not merely altering but fundamentally reshaping various facets of research, publication, and the dissemination of literary works. With the rise of digital humanities and computational text analysis, algorithms have emerged as indispensable tools in unraveling novel insights within literary texts and cultural phenomena. Employing quantitative analyses as its methodological backbone, this study meticulously explores the algorithmic curation of literary content, discerns the discernible influence of algorithms on literary trends, and scrutinizes the mechanisms facilitating the global dissemination of English literature. Drawing upon data extracted from diverse sources including digital libraries, social media platforms, and publication databases, the research underscores the transformative role of algorithms in fostering a more inclusive and diversified comprehension of Global English literature. In essence, this study illuminates how algorithms are not only shaping the present but are poised to significantly influence the trajectory of literary scholarship in the digital age, heralding a new era of exploration and understanding.
