Could YOU Have Published a Book in the Roman Empire? Probably Not.https://youtu.be/WCbiigOxCIY?si=n9BaXqPEz_BLXF8e
could you provide me a book and not a fucking youtube video?
?ANYONE COULD HAVE A BOOK, OR A VOLUME, WRITTEN AND PUBLISHED IF THEY PAID SOMEONE WHO MADE A LIVING FROM IT, AND THESE WERE VIRTUALLY EVERYWHERE.
what's the sauce, historically speaking?
>>18628557>>18628575>>18628672Pliny's Natural History quotes Juba II as an authority over 50 times, because the greco-italians knew roughly jack shit about the southern mediterranean before Juba II explored it, read the local sources and wrote about it in latin/greek.The reason why those schizo-maps paint the Nile as coming from the Atlas mountains is because they're technically quoting Juba II.
>>18628876>because they're technically quoting Juba II.although the same greeks decided not to believe Juba II on his words of Africa being circumnavigable,- so wether the quotes of Juba II is accurate, or deliberately misleading or misread to not give too much credit to Juba II would be up to interpretation. Unless we find his primary works, it can be assumed that the greeks and romans appropriated snippets of Juba II and then denied other works, just like they had done with Egyptian sources or how they decided to memoryhole that the eastern Aegean used to be the central greek realm as opposed to Athens.

>>18628654Literacy rates were pretty low in the Roman Empire in comparison to any country in our times. Because of the lack of compulsory, mass education, that meant that only 1 in every 10 people in the Roman Empire knew how to read and write. For comparison's sake, the country with the lowest literacy rate in the whole world in the year 2026AD is Chad, which has a literacy rate of 22.3%, which is still higher than that of the Roman Empire.I believe it suffices to say that the average person in the Roman Empire would have never managed to put their thoughts on paper so they'd be sold in a bookshop since the average person back then did not know how to read or write.
