The Analectics is a book written by Corvana on Roshar.[1]
History
In the Analectics, Corvana compiled the chants sung by the Vanrial, an order of artists.[1] The Vanrial have sung these words year after year without understanding the words, whose meaning had been lost to time. The Vanrial claimed that these songs were written in the Dawnchant by the Heralds.
When Brightlady Navani Kholin recorded the fourteenth vision that Highprince Dalinar Kholin had, she recognized his last words as part of the Analectics.[1] In doing so, she proved that Dalinar's visions were not fabrications, but rather drawn from somewhere else. This discovery also allowed for the possibility of translating the Analectics, as well as the Dawnchant.
