MOVABLE METAL TYPE AND PRINTING
Before the 1400s. books had to be copied by hand, which was a
laborious and time-consuming method. Books were rare, and only wealthy
people or scholars had access to them or could even learn how to read.
Johannes Gutenberg's invention of movable metal type in the 1440s
changed all that: books could be reproduced much faster and much less
expensively than ever before. Consequently, more people were able to
obtain books and to learn about new ideas and practices. This, in turn,
caused them to question age-old traditions and to yearn for change.
German printers quickly adopted Gutenberg's invention and set up
similar printing presses in other European countries. In less than 50 years
after Gutenberg produced his first book, almost 20 million books had been
printed in Europe.
The German religious reformer Martin Luther was one of the first
authors to reap the benefit of this new technology. Since his books could
be reproduced inexpensively and in large quantities, they could be easily
obtained throughout Europe shortly after Luther completed them. Thus,
Martin Luther was able to spread his religious ideas and call for
reformation quickly throughout Europe, gaining widespread support for
them before the Catholic Church could even formulate a proper response.
