Book Synopsis Greek Writing from Knossos to Homer by : Roger D. Woodard
Book excerpt: Woodard examines the origin of the Greek alphabet and treats the advent of its script as a point on an unbroken continuum of Greek literacy. He argues that those who adapted the Phoenician script were scribes used to writing with the script of Cyprus.
