Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Wie konnte aus Metall, Papier und Tinte ein neues Zeitalter des Wissens entstehen? Im 15. Jahrhundert verband Johannes Gutenberg bewegliche Lettern, eine leistungsfaehige Druckerpresse, geeignete Tinte und Papier zu einem Verfahren, das Buecher in groesserer Zahl und gleichbleibender Form herstellbar machte. Doch die Geschichte des Buchdrucks reicht weit ueber die Leistung eines einzelnen Erfinders hinaus.

In diesem Werk finden Sie: - die Entwicklung von Handschrift und Blockdruck bis zu Gutenbergs Drucksystem - eine verstaendliche Erklaerung von beweglichen Lettern, Matrizen, Schriftguss, Tinte, Druckerpresse und Buchproduktion - die Entstehung der Gutenberg Bibel und den wirtschaftlichen Konflikt zwischen Johannes Gutenberg und Johann Fust - die Ausbreitung frueher Druckereien von Mainz nach Strassburg, Venedig, Paris und in weitere Staedte Europas - die Bedeutung des Buchdrucks fuer Reformation, Humanismus, Wissenschaft, Bildung und politische Nachrichten - den langsamen Wandel von Alphabetisierung, Lesekultur, Schulen, Universitaeten und oeffentlicher Debatte - einen ausgewogenen Blick auf Buchhandel, Verlagsgeschichte, Zensur und die Verbreitung von Wissen Anschaulich wird erklaert, weshalb der Buchdruck Europa nicht ueber Nacht veraenderte. Seine Wirkung entfaltete sich Schritt fuer Schritt durch technische Verbesserungen, wirtschaftliche Netzwerke, religioese Auseinandersetzungen und eine wachsende Nachfrage nach Buechern.
