Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book traces the fascinating evolution of writing throughout human history, from its humble beginnings in prehistoric times to its present-day sophistication. The author argues that speech, the foundation of language, gave rise to writing as a means to preserve and transmit ideas beyond the limitations of oral communication. They explore the emergence of hieroglyphics, symbols that represented words or concepts, as a pivotal step in this progression. They posit that this early form of writing was not unique to specific cultures but rather a common feature among many ancient civilizations. The book delves into the diverse types of hieroglyphics, their symbolic meanings, and their gradual development into more recognizable alphabets. It also investigates the materials, tools, and techniques used in writing, from ancient parchments to modern printing presses. Through meticulous research and analysis of ancient texts, the author unveils the intricate interplay between speech and writing, demonstrating how writing has evolved to reflect the complexities of human thought and the ever-expanding horizons of knowledge. Ultimately, this book offers a comprehensive and enlightening exploration of the origins and evolution of writing, shedding light on its profound impact on human communication, culture, and the advancement of civilization.
