There is much work citing the beginning of this binary thought to a "crisis"
(Eric Havelock) that occurs between the sophists and Plato.  The oppositions
include, but are not limited to: orality/literacy, rhetoric/philosophy,
narrative/argument, mythos/logos.  Some sources below:
Havelock, Eric A. The Muse Learns to Write. Yale UP, 1986.
Jarrett, Susan. Rereading the Sophists. Southern Illinois UP. 1991.
Ong, Walter. Orality and Literacy. Routledge, 1982.
Foucault, Michel. The Order of Discourse.
