AbstractHistoryArchive Description
Catherine Padmore looks at the frailty of text in the 'lost' works of Sibyl of Cumae, the subject of research for her PhD project, and the new electronic medium and concludes that "...the gaps in the [Sibyl] texts show how much has been lost over time. On the other hand, the existence of these literary ruins, circulating thousands of years after they were originally written down, proves the tenacity of the word, even on frail media".
