Download The Gutenberg Revolution Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
One of the most puzzling lapses in accounts of the rise of the West following the decline of the Roman Empire is the casual way historians have dealt with Gutenberg’s invention of printing. The cultural achievements that followed the fifteenth century, when the West moved from relative backwardness to remarkable, robust cultural achievement, would have been impossible without Gutenberg’s gift and its subsequent widespread adoption across most of the world. Richard Abel follows the radical cultural impact of the printing revolution from the eighth century to the Renaissance, addressing the viability of the new Christian/Classical culture. Although this culture proved too fragile to endure, those who salvaged it managed to preserve elements of the Classical substance together with the Bible and all the writings of the Church Fathers. The cultural upsurge of the Renaissance (fourteenth to seventeenth centuries), which resulted in part from Gutenberg’s invention, is a major focus of this book. Abel aims to delineate how the cultural revolution was shaped by the invention of printing. He evaluates its impact on the rapid reorientation and acceleration of the cultural evolution in the West. This book provides insight into the history of the printed word, the roots of modern-day mass book production, and the promise of the electronic revolution. It is an essential work in the history of ideas.

Download The Color Printing Revolution Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Digital technology produced astonishing advances in prepress productivity, unleashing many creative possibilities and image quality improvements. Progress in printing technologies also raised color quality and productivity. Today's subsequent availability of inexpensive, high-quality color images, has greatly enriched us all. Author Gary G. Field's account of modern color printing's evolution has four areas of emphasis: The Photomechanical Era The Electronic Imaging Upheaval Color Printing's Progress The Art-Technology Partnership Sections at the end of key chapters include image structure enlargements from representative color prints. These show how different structural elements and their configuration contributed to quality refinement over the years. Appendices explain the nature of print quality and the tradeoffs often made between one facet of quality and another. This book is intended for the technically-curious reader. Graphic arts personnel, color imaging scientists and engineers, historians of technology and amateur producers of color prints will find much to delight, entertain, and perhaps inspire. Published by The Graphic Communication Institute at Cal Poly and distributed by RIT Press.

This book is associated with the exhibition of the same name, due to open at the Smithsonian American Art Museum in the fall of 2020. It is edited by E. Carmen Ramos, senior curator at the Smithsonian American Art Museum and includes essays by Ramos, Tatiana Reinoza, Terezita Romo, and Claudia Zapata. These essays will discuss how, during the 1960s, activist Chicano artists forged a remarkable history of printmaking that remains vital today. Many artists came of age during the civil rights, labor, anti-war, feminist and LGBTQ+ movements and channeled each period's social activism into assertive aesthetic statements that announced a new political and cultural consciousness among people of Mexican descent in the United States. ¡Printing the Revolution! explores the rise of Chicano graphics within these early--and current--social movements and the ways in which Chicanx artists since then have advanced innovative printmaking practices attuned to social justice.

In 1979 Elizabeth Eisenstein provided the first full-scale treatment of the fifteenth-century printing revolution in the West in her monumental two-volume work, The Printing Press as an Agent of Change. This abridged edition, after summarising the initial changes introduced by the establishment of printing shops, goes on to discuss how printing challenged traditional institutions and affected three major cultural movements: the Renaissance, the Reformation and the rise of modern science. Also included is a later essay which aims to demonstrate that the cumulative processes created by printing are likely to persist despite the recent development of new communications technologies.

'A must-read to anyone interested in the digital world.' - Valérie Schafer, Center for Contemporary and Digital History, University of Luxembourg A concise history of the digital revolution and the lore, rhetoric, and debates that surround it. The Digital Revolution aims to tell a story, one of the most powerful ideologies of recent decades: that digitalization constitutes a revolution, a break with the past, a radical change for the human beings who are living through it. The book aims to investigate the origins of this idea, how it evolved, which other past revolutions consciously or unconsciously inspired it, which great stories it has conveyed over time, which of its key elements have changed and which ones have persisted and have been repeated in different historical periods. All these discussions, large or small, have settled and condensed into a series of media, advertising, corporate, political, and technical sources. Readers will be introduced to new, previously unpublished historical sources. The main aim of the book is to deconstruct what looks like a “natural” and incontestable idea and to help rethink digital societies today.
