Divine Art, Infernal Machine: The Reception of Printing in the West from First Impressions to the Sense of an Ending - Material Texts
Elizabeth L. Eisenstein
The author of the hugely influential The Printing Press as an Agent of Change offers a magisterial and highly readable account of five centuries of ambivalent attitudes toward printing and printers. Once again, she makes a compelling case for the ways in which technological developments and cultural shifts are intimately related.
