We are honored to have Sara Van Den Berg join us to discuss the seminal contributions of Walter Ong to our understanding of language.

Walter Ong is a pioneer in understanding the transition from oral language to written language, and masterfully traces how language and our thinking transforms as we go from purely oral to written to secondary orality (of television) to secondary literacy (of digital).

Sara Van Den Berg is the founder of Walter J. Ong, S.J., Center for Language and Media at St Louis University and the co-editor of Walter Ong’s posthumously published “Language as Hermeneutics: A Primer on the Word and Digitization” which is a brilliant integration of Ong’s core ideas on the nature of language.
