Where do podcasts come from? Letters as an antecedent
Manage episode 405146479 series 3327227
And, we suggest here, letters.
In this, the second of a series of three episodes devoted to the topics of letters, we examine the resemblance between podcasting and letters.
Using as a case study the literary correspondence between George Lyttleton and Rupert Hart-Davis, we explore the significance of various aspects of content and form, ranging from voice and types of orality to friendship and disagreement.
Reference
The Lyttleton Hart-Davis letters were published in six volumes by John Murray (1978-84).
