The Textualization of the Greek Alphabet

Hardback
Published : Monday 24 March 2014
ISBN : 9781107028111
Price : €121.68


Description

This book demonstrates that the earliest Greek users of the alphabet conceived of themselves as participants in a performance phenomenon - in the manner of the oral poets - when they wrote. This book offers a compelling interpretation for the concomitant demise of extemporaneous oral poetic composition and the rise of the alphabet.
