I took a History of the Book class in college, and how books were being made through history was awesome!

Actually movable letters where invented by Peter Schöffer, his business associate. But Schöffer only had money for wooden letters, Gutenberg "stole" his idea and had enough money to make letters out of metal. I lived and raised in the town "Gernsheim", where Schöffer was born. There is also a statue and a school named after him.

And who told you that? Schoffer from his grave?. Because no other scholar actually refutes that gutenberg invented the movable printing press. there is always some nutjob spreading rumours and contrarian information

@SamuelLanghorn Жыл бұрын

is there any more indepth analysis of this topic? I can't find anything more then the superficial stuff when I search for it. - who were the second level printers, - how did they get access to the technology - what is the cost comparison of a hand copied book versus a printed one. It is obvious that there is a cost difference, but are we talking about factor 2 or 100? - what were the first books printed, other then the church texts? I hear travel literature was popular. ..... any help would be appreciated.

The printing press was a technology that existed in China around 1,000 AD/BCE before it was invented in Europe.

@ushathingbaijam4562 Жыл бұрын

I agree with you , the western countries just stole the credit of inventing the printing press from the Chinese and as you have rightfully written , the printing press was invited in China around 1000 AD / BC before the Europeans hoged ( stole ) it's blueprint and made it in Europe

@notbobrosss3670 Жыл бұрын

Partially true. The Chinese had simplistic wooded moveable type set in a wood block. The printing press is a far more efficient and advanced device. It’s a bit like comparing a flint knife to a samurai sword. While u r correct the concept of a blade a fixed to a handle is far older. The two aren’t comparable in most other ways.
