Written Texts and the Rise of Literate Culture in Ancient Greece
Harvey Yunis
From the sixth through the fourth centuries BCE, the landmark developments of Greek culture were accompanied by an explosive growth in the use of written texts. This book considers how writing, reading and disseminating texts led to new ways of thinking and new forms of expression and behaviour.
