Several postmodern literacy practices have been associated with plagiarism. However, the adaptation and appropriation of texts, from a traditional perspective, do not necessarily mean literary theft. At the same time, new technologies and the concept of electronic literature enrich production, exchange and fusion of works. This paper reflects on the limits of postmodernism and literary plagiarism, both elusive concepts, and their potential partnerships in the current literature.
