| 内容記述 | This paper aims at summarizing and explaining from a functional point of view the purposes of writing, or the use of a writing system, in contrast with of speaking. Here writing is presupposed 1) to replace speaking, which is the primary form of linguistic performance; and 2) to be thus secondary to speaking. First, the most important characteristic of writing, i.e. preservability, is discussed in contrast with the ephemerality of speaking. Then, the- removable, remote, and delaying nature of writing is deduced from preservability as its corollaries, and is further contrasted with speaking. Secondly, functions essential to writing are pointed out and discussed with reference to actual writing performance. The central functions, namely mnemonic and remote mediating functions, are delimited first, then the peripheral ones, such as differentiating, ordering, expressive and ritual function, are discussed. The mnemonic and remote mediating functions are derived, respectively, from the preservable and remote nature of writing. The differentiating function is then to mark a particular individual from among similar ones, which could be performed also by signs or mere marks, other than by writing systems. But, for this purpose, the use of writing is by far more economical than any other means. Ordering is realized normally and par excellance by cardinal numbers, but is also possible and probable by any ordered system of writing, such as alphabet systems, Japanese kana syllabaries, and the like. Expressive (in a sociological sense) function of using one and the same writing system is especially obvious in a community, for instance the Minangkabau community in West Sumatra at the beginning of this century, where two or more different value systems are in daily contact with each other. In an illiterate community, however, literacy itself might bring expressive effect to the literate sector of the community. The ritual or sometimes esoteric function of writing is a very marginal phenomenon that, in its perfect form, is observed only in an illiterate community where only a few members or visitors are, marginally or fully, literate. Such was the case with some Melanesian communities at the beginning of this century, when Christian missionaries started their activities. Finally, various types and instances of writing are quoted and discussed to illustrate the efficacy of the framework set up in this paper. Instances are categorized into memoranda, letters, notices (or unilateral communication), literary works, calligraphy and amulets. |
