The Interface of Orality and Writing

About The Book

How did the visual the oral and the written interrelate in antiquity? The essays in this collection address the competing and complementary roles of visual media forms of memory oral performance and literacy and popular culture in the ancient Mediterranean world. Incorporating both customary and innovative perspectives the essays advance the frontiers of our understanding of the nature of ancient texts as regards audibility and performance the vital importance of the visual in the comprehension of texts and basic concepts of communication particularly the need to account for disjunctive and non-reciprocal social relations in communication. Thus the contributions show how the investigation of the interface of the oral and written across the spectrum of seeing hearing and writing generates new concepts of media and mediation.
