Sign Language And Mythology As Primitive Modes Of Representation

By Gerald Massey

Book Overview

""Sign Language And Mythology As Primitive Modes Of Representation"" by Gerald Massey is a scholarly work that explores the role of sign language and mythology in primitive cultures. Massey argues that these two modes of representation are essential to understanding the development of human language and culture. He examines the ways in which sign language and mythology are used to convey meaning and express complex ideas in cultures that lack a written language. Massey also explores the relationship between sign language and mythology, arguing that they are intimately connected and that both are necessary for the creation and transmission of cultural knowledge. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of human language and culture, as well as those interested in the role of sign language and mythology in contemporary society.THIS 52 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Ancient Egypt the Light of the World Part 1, by Gerald Massey.
