What I will take from this lecture is the knowledge of how typography has developed further than being an agreed upon set of symbols to represent the individual sounds/phonetics of a language, to more of an art form that is very much an illustrative discipline rather than being more associated with graphic design.
I also caught on to the notion from this lecture that type also unifies the people, making them more connected through written communication, and having an agreed upon system of symbols to represent the spoken language helps to educate and provide the people with the means for organisation through written communication, this helps build towards an egalitarian society.
