Five hundred years of printing by S. H Steinberg( Book )

137 editions published between 1900 and 2017 in 5 languages and held by 2,775 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

New edition, entirely re-set and containing over one hundred new illustrations. Five Hundred Years of Printing describes the pivotal role that printing has played in the development of human civilization. This work covers the history of printing with movable types through several periods. Steinberg begins with the creative century (1450-1550), which witnessed the invention and beginnings of practically every single feature that characterizes the modern printing piece. An era of consolidation (1550-1800) then followed and refined achievements of the preceding period. The 19th century experienced an era of mechanization, beginning with the invention of lithography and ending with Morris's rediscovery of the Middle Ages and the heyday of the private presses. This and the inception of paperbacks preceded the post-war world, which saw the fields of typesetting, printing and publishing turned upside down. Five Hundred Years also traces the close relationship between printing and culture over many years and also discusses topics like censorship, bestsellers, popular series, and the connection between printing and education, language and literature. Now available again in a larger, finely-illustrated format, Oak Knoll Press's edition, revised and updated by John Trevitt, draws on the collections and curatorial expertise of the British Library. This new edition takes into account the huge technological changes that the printing industry has experienced in the last two decades. - See more at: http://www.oakknoll.com/pages/books/43776/s-h-steinberg/five-hundred-years-of-printing#sthash.WWFzKbru.dpuf -- Publisher's website
