Abstract

The way human beings are drawn to expressing artistically their vital experience through the objects they craft gives also credit to the forms of writing as interesting signs in the expression of their historic idiosyncrasy. These sings express additional values spontaneously and intentionally injected to those forms of writing and mark them as an artistic source of exegetic value for the analysis of the profiles of a human being deeply communicative, individually as much as collectively.
