The printing press was the more effective invention for historians for many reasons. One being that there were so many bibles that were needed to be hand written that when printing was invented it made it easier the on people. Another reason why the printing press was that it made more money for the government. It was cheaper for them to print pages and charge the people which gained the government more
In the beginning of the 1400s, books were all handwritten, and only institutions like churches had them. This made the chance for leaders that had access to books to change or censor some of the vital information withheld in them. However, in 1455, Johann Gutenberg invented the printing press, a machine that made it much easier to spread books and thus, ideas. This changed the entire course of history, making it possible for people to spread these ideas and discover truth for themselves. There are many specific instances of it, but it is hard to see the whole picture. The printing press, one of the most revolutionary inventions in human history, was an integral part of the Reformation during the 1400’s through the 1600’s.
The Printing Press is known as one of the most influential event of the Renaissance. The printing press is an apparatus that applies pressure to an inked surface resting upon a print medium (such as paper or cloth), which then transfers the ink to the paper. This machine was generally used for texts(words and writing). The development of the Renaissance by the Printing press had a significant impact in that it allowed to easily keep records, develop better education, and efficiently mass produce things.
Due to the advancement of printing technology, specifically Gutenberg 's printing press around 1450, notated music could be produced at a much higher capacity. The printing of liturgical books, however, did not commence until 1473, but it rapidly increased until Ottaviano Petrucci had printed 59 volumes of sheet music by 1523.1 Nevertheless, the process was slow and tedious. Grout and Palisca note:
In 1452, the German Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing press that changed hIstory. Before the printing press, books were hand copied. It was very expensive, time-consuming and someone could easily make an error. The printing press let books be produced easily, fast, and cheap. Some people thought that if Gutemberg wan’t there, then the Renaissance would not have had the same influence for today.the first few books tha he printed were of the bible. The Bible was later changed through time, and he used his version on documents used in the Rhine area of Germany in the 14th to 15th centuries.
The Renaissance was a great time of Rebirth of Arts, Science, and Knowledge! There was a lot of brainstorming, and experimenting in the Renaissance time period. There was a substantial amount of Inventors. Inventors of the Renaissance Era, invented trinkets such as: The Celestial and Terrestrial Globe, Flutes, a Protractor, and Ect. But, in my opinion, the printing press is most important, who was first created originally by Bi Sheng. which later on was introduced to the West in the Holy Roman Empire, by none other Johannes Gutenberg.

Everyday people read newspapers and books, but where did printing begin? The movable type printing press by Johannes Gutenberg made this all possible. Johannes first conceived of this idea of the printing press in the 15th century in order to speed up the slow process of producing books (Bantwal). The movable type printing press, the first real technology of its kind, helped to solve problems, but in turn also caused problems. This technology did influence many areas of life in its lifespan. This includes challenging the church and poisoning people with the increased toxins from mass products of materials. Depending on one’s point of view, this invention could be the best or worst thing to happen during the 15th century. Regardless of
The printing press is one of the most effective technologies that was highly impactful on today’s history. It revolutionized the way in which we share ideas with each other and helped enhance this communication. Invented in 1440 by Johannes Gutenberg in the Holy Roman Empire, people all over the world were able to read works of others who were across the world. The printing press was one of the most important inventions that changed the history of mankind. Even though the printing press affected the Reformation, it had an even larger impact on Exploration by inspiring others to explore and to create more maps.
When people moved from their farms and into the city they probably did it because the wanted a better job and to get more money so that they could by the books from the printing press. Another possible reason is in 1472 not a lot of people knew about the printing press so there wasn’t a lot and the price of book went way up, but in 1500 there were a lot of the printing presses so they price of the book went way down. Also the people who went to the Catholic Church were curious about the book and its language’s. Plus when you live on a farm then you don’t get a lot of money so you can’t get the book and if you wanted a better job than you would move in to the city. Also in the country side you would have to walk far to go to the church, but
In 1350 the renaissance had begun, it was the time to bring back and restore many things from the past. Many people from the renaissance time tried to make a living on their own by painting and writing books. Although it seemed very hard to spread their ideas around the world but until 1444 their worries began to shrink. A man from Germany named Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing press, which made possible for people to have copies of books and letters in much lesser time than they were used to. The invention of the printing press was one of most notable inventions from the last millennium because it brought very important changes and accomplishments in the whole world that we can still
Gutenberg’s printing press was one of the most important inventions of the renaissance, as it has had a major impact on both the Renaissance and todays world of printing. The Gutenberg Press, impacted the renaissance by, making books and information easier and cheaper to reproduce and print, spreading more information easier and faster to vast audiences eager for new information, helping advance science and technology, and also by helping the economy grow stronger through creating new industries and the constant purchasing of books.
The move from a manuscript culture to a literate one due to the invention of the printing press had many cultural effects, including the democratisation of knowledge, an educational revolution, narrative permanency, accuracy of information, and empowerment of society. These effects altered the way that people accessed, processed, and understood information, and is a key development in creating the society we live in today.
A turning point entails the landmark moments and forces of change that make up modern history (Liulevicius, 2014). The most important turning point happened way back in 1400. They have helped the human race in their struggle for civilization. These turning points have become a reckoning force in areas that affect people across all parts of the globe. These areas include scientific development, social change, the ever growing wave of technology advancement and innovation, offsets to human intellectual capacity, military techniques for war and natural disasters and most importantly economic development in different economies.
Both of these inventions help students and people to learn better and faster. The printing press gave people books available in their own language which made people read more and become literate. The internet/computer can reduce time a student takes to learn and helps them prepare for their future careers. Another similarity that both these inventions have is that it allows people to communicate better. The printing press helped spread ideas and knowledge to other places and people through books, while the internet/computer lets people communicate through skype, via message, and chat rooms. Without the printing press people would not have had the ability to print books for people in the vernacular language which made people more educated, but it also helped spread many ideas through books that went everywhere. The internet/computer helps people in many ways, making it easier for people to learn and get educated. Both of these inventions helped the world in many similar and astonishing
