Contextualizing these themes within the history of communication, it examines specific case studies ranging from early scientific circles to literary manifestos.
""Intellectual Post"" begins with the historical context of letters before progressing through various intellectual and literary communities, and culminates with a discussion on the legacy of letter-writing in the digital age.
