SUMMARY:The Program in World Philology: Philology and Linguistic Awa
 reness at the Dawn of Writing
DESCRIPTION:A perennial preoccupation in the study of early writing syst
 ems is the degree to which these earliest forms of written c
 ommunication reflect speech.  Nowhere is this concern more 
 keenly present than in study of the earliest writing from Me
 sopotamia\, known as proto-cuneiform\, for which the vast gulf
  that separates speech from writing raises questions about t
 he very language that underlies the script.
