What are the impacts of Print Revolution?
Answer➨
It was not just a development, a new way of producing books; it transformed the lives of people, changing their relationship to information and knowledge, and with institutions and authorities. Printing reduced the cost of books. Access to books created a new culture of reading. Books could be read only by the literate, and the rates of literacy in most European countries were very low till the twentieth century. Printers began publishing popular ballads and folk tales, and such books were profusely illustrated with pictures. These were then sung and recited at gatherings in villages and in taverns. Oral culture thus entered print and printed material was orally transmitted. Print and popular religious literature stimulated many distinctive individual interpretations of faith even among little-educated working people. The Roman Church, troubled by effects of popular readings and questionings of faith, imposed severe controls over publishers and booksellers and began to maintain an Index of Prohibited Books from 1558.
