Taking into account the difficulties that are faced by literature professors today, as a result of declining interest in reading books by students, the article stresses the need to motivate them and the role that technology resources information and communication play in this regard. This issue in the article is treated by analyzing initially and briefly the fundamental changes that the use of new technologies has brought in literature which show the development of multimedia with hypertext and e-books focusing afterwards at the impact that this technology has on the manner of study by students and on the didactic of literature by teachers. Arguing that the new technologies, can best support the teaching of literature technologies at any level of study, the article proposes the inclusion of digital technologies in the curriculum’s literature.
