Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the question of who invented the printing press with movable type, examining supporting evidence for both Johannes Gutenberg and Laurens Coster. The author argues that although Gutenberg's press may have been more advanced, Coster was the first to successfully use movable type, and that the Gutenberg Bible, traditionally considered the first major work of the printing press, was actually preceded by Coster's Speculum Humanae Salvationis. The author concludes that while Gutenberg's contributions cannot be understated, the true inventor of the printing press was, in fact, Coster. This book delves into the rich history of this transformative invention and is considered one of the most thorough and well-documented analyses of the topic. Furthermore, it features over 30 plates and engravings that further illustrate and illuminate the discussion. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331938545_0
