Empire of the Word - Series (M)
Eight years in the making, Empire of the Word is a compelling look at reading and traces its impact on more than 5000 years of human history.
Narrated by Canadian writer Alberto Manguel, the series traces the origins or reading; examines how we learn to read; exposes censors attempts to prevent our reading; and finally, proposes what the future might hold for this most human of creative acts.
