Observe:
This chapter is on the refashioning of dialogs and the difference between oral communication and textual communication. It is also on how the spoken word is tied into text and how they both continue to develop and change. The spoken word is directly related to text and both have contributed to the change from the early use of papyrus to today’s eBook.
Infer:
The main point of the prezi is studying the connection between textual communication and oral communication. Their argument suggests that the spoken word and the written word both have positives and negatives, and both have changed over time. Plato used written word and had a harder time portraying his message because he couldn’t debate or defend his claim directly. However, Socrates used spoken word and had a harder time keeping his message consistent as it was passed on by word of mouth person to person. The point is that both methods are connected and have changed the way we read, think, and create books. This is relevant to our lives today because it is important to understand that different people communicate better in different ways. This needs to be taken under consideration as we develop technology in the future, either to be used to communicate for the classroom or for one’s own social desires.
Question:
How is dialog a hybrid of both oral communication and written communication?
Why did David Bolter find dissatisfaction with linear arguments in Writing Space?
Why is it easier to “hoodwink” a listener rather than a reader?
