A fantastic demonstration of a highly specialized skill. Those old master printers were real magicians in their time. The books, pamphlets, newspapers, broadsides, and other products from their presses were the fount of culture in their communities. As a research scholar, I'm grateful for the printing press and the men and women who operated them. I certainly miss the days of hot-lead type.

The smell of melting lead in the old Linotype pots in the composing rooms of newspapers used to give me a slight high. Linotypes were an amazing invention and the compositors took pride in their work. Most of these machines would have been trashed with the advent of computers but there is an indented aesthetic about the old typefaces.

True, tho one might argue that a person in the modern era reminiscing about older metal type printing is like a person at the time when metal type was prevalent reminiscing about writing books by hand or a person at the time when books were handwritten reminiscing about people having good memory and passing information orally lol.

As much effort as it looks like it takes just to print one page or one book with that printing press compared to today, it was nothing compared to how difficult it was before the printing press was invented. When first invented, the printing press was a groundbreaking invention because prior to the invention of the printing press, books had to be painstakingly copied word for word by hand by people called scribes. If a scribe made one mistake, they had to start over and do the whole page over again, and they had to go through the whole process every time they wanted to copy a book. After the invention of the printing press however, all one had to do was create one template for each page, but once templates were made for all pages, they could use those templates over and over again to make book after book.

Well, it was this, modern paper, the fairly limited Latin alphabet and a book as popular as the Bible all together. Really printing presses like this had been invented in China around 1000 A.D. and they were used sometimes, but the huge number of different characters, relative scarcity of material to print on and lack of a single written work as popular as the Bible meant that they never *really* took off until Gutenberg made his version. Plus making the "types" (the letters) was always a tough process, one of Gutenberg's big innovations was making them easier to produce.
@thetherrannative10 ай бұрын
@@colbyboucher6391 It was also the metal used to make the letters! They had to find an alloy that would stay even when it cooled so the letters would retain their form. There was a *lot* of hard work and technology that went into it.

As a museum employee/touring guide I'm sure that man has, over time, tailored and tweaked his routine to entertainingly provide all the relevant information in a structured fashion. Asking for information that is part of the routine anyway is an impatient disruption of that man's narative flow, and easily avoided by asking whatever question is left unanswered after the demonstration or tour.

Never realized it took so long even with a printing press. But in contrast to having a scribe copy it by hand this is definitely worlds faster. Only thing I wish you'd also included is: did the typeset have to be reinked between every press? I'm guessing it does. To get a quality and consistency in the prints you'd have to.

Fue la generalización de la imprenta lo que consolidó el derrumbe de la era oscura, la divulgación de textos poco a poco fue extendiéndose hasta convertirse en casi algo sagrado, muy difícilmente una información que no estuviese impresa sería tomada en serio. Y la calidad de la presentación, los tipos de letras, el espaciado, la proporción, el tamaño fueron el paso que necesitaba el publico para enamorarse del contenido, y ese detalle lo agregaron los impresores artesanales, fue ahí donde se ve esa mano mágica hace que un texto se vea atractivo, interesante y legible.
