Excerpt from The Letter-Writer's Handbook If the word literature has now come to have the accepted meaning Of the science Of letters, literary productions, its founda tion, littera, equal to a letter, in the Latin language meant both the symbol, character Of the alphabet, and a written message. In other words, the beginning Of literature was the commencement Of the art of writing letters, and therefore correspondence is something Of real dignity and importance, deserving treatment as such.
