An argument presented by “Walter Ong” is a never ending debate on how writing can “restructure human consciousness”. There are many arguments that convey both pros and cons in regards to this argument.

Archaeologists claimed that they had found a multiplication table at the Gurendi cultural relics of the Eastern Han Dynasty (25-220) in Zhangjiajie‚ Central China’s Human Province. The table was discovered on a 22 cm-long wooden strip which was broken when it was discovered and the handwriting on it is quite illegible.

I chose Sven Birkerts’s article about James Wright’s “Lying in a Hammock at William Duffy’s farm in Pine Island‚ Minnesota”. The author sets a very nice pace‚ going over all the vital parts of the poem. It starts off addressing the title‚ he feels as though it is needlessly long.
