I think the band Ok Go is really cool, and their song "Before the Earth Was Round" kind of put the transcendence from medieval or even literate ages to the now post-literate era into perspective for me. Here are the lyrics and below those is a link to the song. Enjoy! :)
Before the earth was round,
There was no end to things
No one tried to measure what they knew
Everything was warm
And everyone would love
And every contradiction was true
The sun worked twice as hard
And the moon was twice as far
And the sky was still honestly blue
The sky was still honestly blue
But when the time came
Everything spiraled in
And everyone forgot what they knew
War became a job
And love became a mystery
And heart and head were bent out of tune
Fear and doubt began
And God threw up his hands
And the sky didn't know what to do
The sky didn't know what to do
The sky didn't know what to do.
