Punctuation Evolution
In most Western languages, punctuation classically aids in reading texts aloud. The ancient Greeks first came up with the idea to help actors performing onstage know to pause for dramatic effect. And they expanded on that idea, using punctuation to indicate rhetorical sections of their writing.
The Romans, who introduced the Latin alphabet, picked up on what the Greeks were doing and occasionally used punctuation to indicate pauses in their written texts. But while the Romans were hugely influntial in other areas, the Greek system of using punctuation for rhetorical purposes prevaile.
The use of punctuation grew in the Middle Ages as scribes created multiple copies of the Bible. The scribes also began using other methods, such as indentation and capitalization, to separate long passages of text into more readable tidbits. The Bibles were copied to be read aloud, so the scribes' rhetorical devices were created specifically to aid in reciting its passages during mass.
Then, when Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing press with his system of movable type in the 15th century, the use of punctuation exploded and became more standardized. The earliest printers used the ideas developed by the scribes of the time. As printed books became more common themost influential printers led the way and gae us themost common punctuation that use use, today including the comma and the period.
Once those old printers standardized the use of punctuation, new punctuation marks were rarely brought into the fold. Even with the advent of digital fonts, develop publishing and Web publishing, new punctuation ma4rks are difficult to add because, in order for them to be truly useful, everyone who reads the text must understand what they mean. But the invention of the interrobang a combination of a question mark and an exclamation mark, shows that it's not impossible.
