Who said littera scripta manet




















And such may be the case here, for a Greek version exists. This is a legal tag, asserting the reliability of written evidence as opposed to the unreliability of hearsay. I do not know of any original Latin source for it. I rather doubt it has one. It doesn't sound like real Latin. Sphaerophoria scripta was created in Hellinsia scripta was created in Scripta Mathematica ended in Scripta Mathematica was created in Scripta Geologica was created in Tipula scripta was created in Taeneremina scripta was created in Aenetus scripta was created in Physica Scripta was created in Emmalocera scripta was created in Hyacinthoides non-scripta was created in A yellowbelly slider is a species of turtle, Latin name Trachemys scripta scripta.

E-mail passed between Oliver North and his Iran- Contra conspirators survived numerous attempts at expungement, and now resides in the National Security Archives for all to inspect, even as historians naively lament that the switch to electronic media is depriving them of important research fodder.

They needn't worry; paper may be on the skids, but text is eternal. Immortality may be the least of the surprises that this new medium of electronic text will deliver.

Video enthusiasts are quick to argue that images are intrinsically more compelling than words, but they ignore a quality unique to text. While video is received by the eyes, text resonates in the mind. Text invites our minds to complete the word-based images it serves up, while video excludes such mental extensions. Until physical brain-to-machine links become a reality, text will offer the most direct of paths between the mind and the external world.

Video suffers from a deeper problem, one of ever diminishing reliability in the face of ever more capable morphing technologies. By decade's end, we will look back at and wonder how a video of police beating a citizen could move Los Angeles to riot. The age of camcorder innocence will evaporate as teenage morphers routinely manipulate the most prosaic of images into vivid, convincing fictions. We will no longer trust our eyes when observing video-mediated reality.

Text will emerge as a primary indicator of trustworthiness, and images will transit the Net as multimedia surrounded by a bodyguard of words, just as medieval scholars routinely added textual glosses in the margins of their tomes.

Of course words can be as false as images, but there is something to text that keeps our credulity at bay. Perhaps the intellectual labor required to decode words keeps us mentally alert, while visual stimuli encourage passivity.
