So as not to belabor the point, as mankind has evolved its creation of written language, it has infused certain meanings and devices in written language for strategic purposes. These purposes include the development and maintenance of linguistic tactics of secrecy, the storage of delicate intellectual and political content, and the maintenance of a selected historical record. My first book discusses these three primary aspects of written language (hereafter to be referred to simply as language), and places its main focus on the element of secrecy. That is, it is a discussion of how language by its very nature and design cloaks a hidden content...which is referred to as its latent content. Moreover, my first book suggests that the hidden content was a part of the design of language from its inception. The element of secrecy was a fundamental characteristic in the origin and creation of language as we know it. Its main purpose was not so much to communicate as such but, rather, to communicate human understandings and deeper meanings secretly.
