Notes on slide 1

about 100000 years the foxp2 gene mutated and human beings developed the ability to speak instead of grunting - oral culture, story telling from generation to generation.

Writing 7000 years ago. Made it possible to detach the speaker from the spoken word, transfer the message over time and space. Authorship - Identity

Several hundred years before Johannes Gutenberg, movable type was invented in Korea and China – Nobody noticed. 1439 Gutenberg Bible - expensive Aldus Manutius usability - saddle case - carry books around - learn reading - democratizing of wisdom, French revolution, Aufklärung
