Description

A survey of language communication from oral culture and early literacy through to the impact of electronic technology and what is described as a post-literate culture dominated by visual imagery. The book emphasises the place of rhetoric in this tradition as a theory of communication especially associated with literacy and linear communication in the age of printing.
