Spread of Knowledge Paper

The printing press revolutionized the world and created the means by which knowledge could be consumed by anyone who could read.

“He who first shortened the labor of copyists by the device of moveable types was disbanding hired armies, and cashiering most kings and senates, and creating a whole new democratic world.”

–Thomas Carlyle, 1836 (Boorstin, p. 516)
