Skilfully taking advantage of the potentialities offered by the graphic novel genre, La grande storia della scrittura by Vitali Konstantinov traces the development of over 100 writing systems from their origins to the digital era \u2013 and make no mistakes, the book ranges from hieroglyphs to the Greek alphabet and fictional languages such as Klingon.<br \/>\nAnd more. The author&#8217;s words and illustrations also follow the evolution of writing on various media: carvings on stones, bones or shells, marks on the sand and engravings on birch bark. Going back to the dawn of time, when people used simple, complex or interconnected characters to communicate with each other, the book retraces a mode of expression that changed through time and, with digital communication, is going back to simpler and more direct forms, not too far from its origins, actually. <\/p><p><em>La grande storia della scrittura (The great history of writing)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>by Vitali Konstantinov<\/p>\n<p>L\u2019Ippocampo Edizioni, 2022<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From cuneiform writing to emoji.
