Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book proposes a new understanding of the origins and development of language, arguing that dactylology, a system of signs communicated through the hands, preceded spoken language and formed the basis of all subsequent linguistic systems. The author, a pioneering linguist, draws on a vast array of evidence from ancient monuments, artifacts, and texts to support this revolutionary theory. The book delves into the historical and cultural contexts of dactylology, tracing its evolution from the earliest cave paintings to the sophisticated sign languages used by civilizations around the world. The author explores the role of dactylology in the development of writing systems, from the cuneiform script of ancient Mesopotamia to the alphabetic systems of Greece and Rome. This groundbreaking work challenges long-held assumptions about the origins of language and offers a fresh perspective on the fundamental nature of human communication. By demonstrating the universality and antiquity of dactylology, the author provides a new framework for understanding the complex relationship between language, culture, and cognition. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
