""La Escritura Lineal Atlantica (ELA) constituye el testimonio mas antiguo en la historia de la humanidad del uso de un sistema de escritura linguistica.""

"El signario ELA (Escritura Lineal Atlantica) cumple con los tres principios fundamentales de una autentica escritura glottografica: 1. Secuencialidad y ordenamiento logico, 2. Recurrencia de signos, 3. Morfologia lineal y esquematica. Y ha superado la prueba fundamental. La mas importante: una identificacion de signos con fonemas que han permitido traducciones coherentes, logicas y creibles, a traves de lenguas que pudieron haberse hablado en la region, de acuerdo a la evidencia historico-epigrafica y genetica (ADNmit)."

"Este libro es una seleccion de algunos de los numerosos testimonios epigraficos ELA que el autor ha logrado recopilar durante mas de veinte anos, desde que descubrio la presencia del signario entre los petroglificos del noroeste de Iberia, y mas tarde tambien en otros lugares de la peninsula y por casi toda las regiones de la costa atlantica europea y africana. "

"La conclusion del autor de este ensayo es que la Escritura Lineal Atlantica (ELA) constituye el testimonio mas antiguo en la historia de la humanidad del uso de un sistema de escritura linguistica."

Shape of Script - How and Why Writing Systems Change (Paperback): Stephen Houston Shape of Script - How and Why Writing Systems Change (Paperback)
Stephen Houston
R1,057 Discovery Miles 10 570 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Stephen D. Houston has spent decades studying the nature of writing systems, which "are so very basic as nodes of connection among many aspects of human experience," such as language, communication, identity, technology, and the recording of memory. "One of the misconceptions about writing is that a particular system of script comes into existence, remains the same, and then `dies,'" said Houston."This notion radically and wrongly dehistoricizes systems of writing. We now know that scripts exist as fluid sets of practices, shifting over long periods of time and in response to changing historical circumstances, conditions of learning, and arenas of patronage and use." For this advanced seminar "The Shape of Script: How and Why Writing Systems Change," 10 specialists convened to address "the question of what happens between the origins of a writing system and the time of eventual `script death,' or extinction." Although scholars are close to conceptualizing the way scripts emerge and pass into obsolescence, they are still far from explaining how scripts maintain themselves over time or how and why they change when they do. "This is unfortunate: writing is one of the central cultural productions in human history, yet its many modulations and shifts seem largely to be taken for granted, without need for explanation. Writing is a pivotal intermediary in many human transactions. But it needs to be brought back into the fold of anthropology, not as a marginal specialty but as an indispensable tool by which knowledge is transmitted." The seminar, conceived as a capstone to a 10-year project to resuscitate and renovate the study of past writing systems within anthropology, brought together experts in script traditions including Egyptian hieroglyphs, Latin writing and Mediterranean alphabets, cuneiform, South Asian scripts, ancient Roman script, and premodern Arabic, Japanese, Chinese, and Mesoamerican writing systems. Using cross-cultural comparisons, the participants sought to understand the forces that influence the courses of writing systems. Houston emphasized the importance of examining context:"What is the physical, temporal, social, and cultural setting for the way the message of writing is accessed? That is where history enters the picture, within a place of contingency, challenge, and opportunity." Among the questions driving the discussions were the following: What processes affected formal changes in scripts? What agents or actors were involved in such shifts, either actively or passively? How was literacy achieved, then futhered or restricted? How did aesthetics and the use of script shape each other? What influence did technologies have on script forms? How was writing "gendered" or "aged" or "classed"?And what are the linkages between images and script? Of particular interest was the issue of generational transfer. "This brings us to matters on the cutting edge of anthropology:What is the role of being a child, or an adolescent? What do we learn? When and why do we learn it? This is what's involved in making sure that script survives more than that initial act of innovation, so that it's used again and again, across generations," Houston said.
