The first step in the analysis of the narrative occurred in the course of history is going to explain how the transition occurred between orality and writing. is important in this regard, mention the work done by American Walter J. Ong (1986). He distinguishes between two types of cultures: those with "primary orality" and those based on writing. Orality is an intrinsic and stable unlike the language of writing that can be seen as a real and its technology .. cultures to "primary orality" does not possess any written support, are highly constrained by the limits of storage .. With the introduction of writing, however, are exceeded the variability and impermanence of orality and created the so-called culture chirography (Coffin, 2003). The writing can be seen as the most important event in the history of technological inventions of man: "Without writing a literate person would not know and could not think in the way he does" (Ong, 1986). And with the discovery of printing was born the first true mass medium for the transmission of knowledge. But in today's world, what happens? Ong speaks of "secondary orality" (or return) to indicate the return of the importance of orality with the proliferation of media such as radio, television and, finally, the computer. We return to a world mediated oral, however, experience from the alphabet and writing. The new orality has similarities with the old, but at the same time, it differs in that it reaches a wider audience and generate a sense of belonging to a very large group. In the process of remediation writing seems to capture, and then, some features orality and on the other hand, the technologies themselves also have reassessed the importance of writing as a preferred vehicle for the transmission of content.
