Vielleicht ist die Erschaffung der Schrift die größte Erfindung der Menschheit überhaupt. Sie macht es möglich, Geschichten zu Geschichte werden zu lassen, sie gibt uns ein zeitloses Medium der Kommunikation, über alle Epochen und über alle Regionen der Erde hinweg. Und das Alphabet, diese circa zwei bis drei Dutzend Zeichen, stellen die Kronjuwelen dieser wahrlich königlichen Geistesleistung dar, egal mit welchem der bekannten Alphabete geschrieben wird. Verstreut wie Fürstentümer im Reich der Sprache führen die einzelnen Buchstaben ein Eigenleben, durchsetzt von kuriosen und überraschenden Kapriolen, und doch ausgezeichnet durch kulturübergreifende, kollektive Wirkungskraft. Der Darstellung des Charakters jedes einzelnen Buchstabens unseres Alphabets, seine Entwicklung auf dem nahezu 4000 Jahre langen Weg der Schrift sowie das Sichtbarmachen der Zusammenhänge von Laut und Zeichen, diesen großen Themenunserer Kultur widmet sich das vor Ihnen liegende Buch. Mit zahlreichen schwarzweiß Abbildungen.
