Descripción del producto

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.
