The written text can be defined as a medium of something that's written or transcripted from otherr texts. <u>The unique characteristic of a written text is that it lasts long than other mediums such as verbal, audio, etc</u>.
Example of this unique characteristic of longevity of written text are the historical books that were written ages ago and still exist such as Holy Scriptures, historical books for instance 'Of Plymouth Plantation', autobiographies, etc. If we compare the longevity of other mediums with written text, written texts lasts longer than the others.
If you don’t learn history you are condemned to repeat it. Children sometimes don’t learn and repeat bad things so not learning history is kinda like that.
