THE INVENTION OF THE PRINTING PRESS


The printing press was a wonderful invention that aided in the education of


many. But before we go into that, let me tell you a little about this contraption.


Invented in 1456 my Johann Gutenberg, he printed the Bible, now know as the


Gutenberg Bible. This innovative device worked by moveable metal type which took a


lot of time to set up, but was well worth it when you saw page after page being


printed.


The printing press had a great effect on many individuals, especially those who


wrote stories and such. One such man was William Shakespeare. The printing press


aided him because his stories were able to be read throughout Europe, gaining his fame


and popularity. Another man who got help from the printing press is Johann


Gutenberg himself. Because he was the one to invent this machine, he got his name into


History books around the world. That is fame!!!!!!!


The impact the press had on education was allowing more people to learn to


read and write. Because more books were available and cheap people could buy them

r />

and teach themselves to read, thus becoming literate and raising the rate. Because of


the higher literacy rate there were more teachers to show how to red and write. So the


press and a great effect on my being able to read and write these wonderful essays


today.


The impact the press had on society, was that of great nature. The books


taught of religon, letting more people know about any particular religon. Preachers


were able to get their sermons published. “The preaching of sermons is speaking to a


few of mankind, but printing books is talking to the world,” noted one English


professor


So in conclusion, the printing press and a great deal of effect on individuals,


education, and society. Such great effects that lead down to even me being able to read


and write. I am very glad that this machine was invented, it has helped the world be


educated in so many ways. Can you imagine what the world would be like now, if


there was no printing press? I would rather not even think of it.


I got a 10/10 and a “very creative” on this paper. I reccomend only using if you teacher likes you.
