In terms of anxiety on writing things down, an earlier media fear might be criticising graven images as facilitating idolatry. So an illustrated book comes with the threat of ruining your memory and turning you into a pagan.

That strict periodisation where Gutenberg’s press was the exact moment when literacy spread to people of all classes is some pretty old thinking, Eisenstein with the whole “print culture” meme if I’m not mistaken. A really good book about how misleading this can be is The Nature of the Book by Adrian Johns, I understand you’re constrained by time and audience but this is a fairly nuanced point which I hope you’ll address in more detail.

Movable type was invented in 1040 AD in China. The types were made of clay but was replaced by metallic types in the 12th century. Literacy can be a threat to the ruling power, but when your empire was as powerful as China was at the time, mass literacy was necessary for maintaining the massive bureaucracy and economy that covers land area as large as, if not larger, than the Roman Empire. Movable type enables a reliable way to mass produce paper money. Higher literacy mean more people can read and follow laws and pay taxes. While literacy remained low for most of China, there were enough middle-class in urban and some in rural area to keep the government, economy, and society as a whole from collapsing.

@Pfhorrest6 жыл бұрын
Fun fact: The Mongols (always the exception!) brought printing presses in their early expeditions to the west, and reprinted Bibles for the Christian westerners as one of the services they traded there. That pissed off the churches, who controlled the states, who attacked the Mongol explorers/traders, who returned to the east and reported that the peoples of the west were violent barbaric hordes in need of conquering for the sake of their own civilization.

@timothymclean6 жыл бұрын
The difference between printing and a printing press is important. Even Europe had printing before Gutenberg; the problem was that you needed to carve a whole stamp for each page you tried to print, so it was very rarely useful. Gutenberg's printing press and its moveable type meant you only needed a few dozen stamps to print anything you wanted (though in practice you'd want a couple hundred, so you could print an entire page at once). _This_ is what made Gutenberg's printing press into a force that changed the world. With about as much equipment as it would take to make just a few whole-page printing stamps, you could theoretically print _anything._ Translations of the Bible, rival translations of the Bible, arguments over interpreting the Bible...some people even used it for non-religious stuff! (And for anyone wondering why the Chinese didn't do this: Their written language was designed to be a _lingua franca_ between dozens of mutually unintelligible dialects/languages, and hence has thousands of unique characters. Even if someone worked out the technology required for doing that, it would have been hellishly expensive to actually make or use.)

People still often rely on clergy to interpret. I suggest evidence of various ideas of interpretation, but looking at cults being gate keepers of information and how. Some political cults are forcing indoctrination on kids besides religious cults. Though that is a whole other thing. I digress. Censorship happens but self censorship happens as well. That ignorance and willing ignorance besides stereotype, misinformation, and such. Most don't look at things skeptically and with critical thinking it seems, or cherry picking is done. Though I can see why it is not easy to be literate with how the human brain functions with such behaviors in general. Thanks for this.
