Description

Oral communication is quite different in its spontaneity and communicative power from textual and visual communication.

Culturally-bounded expectations of ways of speaking and individual creativity provide the spark that can ignite revolution or calm the soul.

This book explores, from a cross-cultural perspective, the centrality of orality in the ideological processes that dominate public discourse, providing a counterbalance to the debates that foreground literacy and the power of written communication.
