" Most Citizens of the Star Wars Galaxy are Probably Totally Illiterate "
Curious article by Ryan Britt
- Not once in any Star Wars movie does someone pick up a book or newspaper, magazine, literary journal, or chapbook handmade by an aspiring Jawa poet. If something is read by someone in Star Wars, it’s almost certainly off of a screen (and even then, maybe being translated by a droid), and it’s definitely not for entertainment purposes. As early as the 1990s-era expanded Star Wars books and comic books, we’re introduced to ancient Jedi “texts” called holocrons, which are basically talking holographic video recordings. Just how long has the Star Wars universe been reliant on fancy technology to transfer information as opposed to the written word? Is it possible that a good number of people in Star Wars are completely illiterate?

Book of Sith: Secrets from the Dark Side
" As various Sith Lords rose to power, they recorded their thoughts and plans to take control of the galaxy. Over the years, these writings were passed among numerous Sith and Jedi. In his quest for domination, Darth Sidious recovered what remained of five pivotal Sith texts. He then wrote a sixth text—his own manifesto. Together, these documents, along with several Sith artifacts, create the Book of Sith. "
