It's been said that without Harold A. Innis there could have been no Marshall McLuhan. Empire and Communications is one of Innis's most important contributions to the debate about how media influenced the development of consciousness and societies. In this foundational work, he traces humanity's movement from the oral tradition of preliterate cultures to the electronic media of recent times. Along the way, he presents his own influential concepts of oral communication, time and space bias, and monopolies of knowledge. With a new introduction by Alexander John Watson, author of Marginal Man: The Dark Vision of Harold Innis, and a new foreword by series editor Andrew Calabrese, this previously hard-to-obtain book is now readily available again. All communication scholars should have this classic book on their shelves, and it also serves as a great supplementary text in communication and economics courses.

评分但凡以文明的视角言说历史,大都寄寓着思想者对现实的关切。汤因比作《历史研究》,爬梳史料截止1972年,直指当代文明的表征;斯宾格勒更是通过文化有机体的概念,以古典文化的没落比附西方的没落。 伊尼斯也属此列。较前两者不同,伊氏更多着眼传播之于文明兴衰的意义。在浩繁...
