Reading
The Printing Press
Early humans communicated and stored information by drawing pictures on cave walls. Some of these can still be seen today. Later, animal hides were dried and pressed to create parchments. During the Tang Dynasty (ca. 700), the Chinese used woodblock printing. Koreans also used moveable metal type to print.
Field Friends
The Printing Press
Information was shared and stored by scribes, who handwrote copies of books, which took weeks and months to finish. A book could cost as much as a house!When only very upper classes, monks and scholars could read, townspeople met regularly in pubs to have a paid reader share the news of the world.
The Printing Press
Inexpensive, quick printing was finally invented in 1436 by Johannes Gutenberg in Germany. Gutenberg's idea, to squeeze inked metal type evenly onto paper, changed how information was shared in the world. Unfortunately, while many books could be quickly printed, few people knew how to read them! Also, there was no plan for transporting the books to people who needed them.
Field Friends
The Printing Press
Gutenberg died a poor man because his books could not reach the world. In the 15th century, the demand for his books was limited to a few scholars. He never saw the development of transportation for his books. After Gutenberg's death, printing took place in Venice, Italy, where books were sold to ship captains who would re-sell them around the world.
Field Friends
The Printing Press
As printed books became more available, people began to learn to read themselves. Even middle class merchants began to keep small libraries of books in their homes. Huge paper mills were needed to produce masses of paper, using plant fibers from many forests of trees. However, digital communication is now changing how we share information.
