Language in all its modes—oral, written, print, electronic—claims the central role in Walter J. Ong's acclaimed speculations on human culture. After his death, his archives were found to contain unpublished drafts of a final book manuscript that Ong envisioned as a distillation of his life's work. This first publication of Language as Hermeneutic, reconstructed from Ong's various drafts by Thomas D. Zlatic and Sara van den Berg, is more than a summation of his thinking. It develops new arguments around issues of cognition, interpretation, and language. Digitization, he writes, is inherent in all forms of "writing," from its early beginnings in clay tablets. As digitization increases in print and now electronic culture, there is a corresponding need to counter the fractioning of digitization with the unitive attempts of hermeneutics, particularly hermeneutics that are modeled on oral rather than written paradigms.In addition to the edited text of Language as Hermeneutic, this volume includes essays on the reconstruction of Ong's work and its significance within Ong's intellectual project, as well as a previously unpublished article by Ong, "Time, Digitization, and Dalí's Memory," which further explores language's role in preserving and enhancing our humanity in the digital age.

In 2005, scholars gathered from around the country for a conference at Saint Louis University to honour the memory of Walter J. Ong, S.J., whose intellectual work had a major impact on the study of language in many different disciplines.The book gathers together contributions to that conference. These essays offer significant reflections on psychoanalysis, biomedical ethics, children's literacy, Biblical studies, electronic textuality, rhetorical interpretation of poetry, the history of rhetoric, communication theory, ""funk"" in African American literature, and Walter Ong's career. The volume also includes the definitive bibliography of Fr. Ong's work, compiled by Thomas M. Walsh.
