The Future of the Past
Alexander Stille
A fascinating tour of the past as it exists today, and of the dangers that threaten it, through incisive portraits of our attempts to maintain it: the high-tech struggles to save the Great Sphinx and the Ganges; the efforts to preserve Latin within the Vatican; the digital glut inside the National Archives, which may have caused more information to be lost than ever before; and an oral culture threatened by a ?new? technology: writing itself. Stille explores not simply the past, but our ideas about the past?and how they will have to change if our past is to have a future.
