Discover how ancient Greece moved from oral stories to written books and how scholars uncover the roots of Greek writing.

- Explores the materials used for writing, from leaves and papyrus to skins and tablets.
- Discusses how the idea of a textus receptus or standard text affected when and how works were read.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a largely uncharted territory in the history of Greek civilization: their literary practices, and the development of Greek writing. The author argues that, rather than the development of accessible writing tools birthing the output of Greek literature, the sudden explosion of literacy was instead the byproduct of that very outpouring. Through meticulous research and analysis, this book pushes back the accepted timeline of Greek writing and offers a unique insight into the growth of Greek intellectual thought and literature. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781334503160_0
