About This Book

O texto investiga a origem e o desenvolvimento da arte de imprimir, combinando relato histórico e explicação técnica: discute reivindicações concorrentes sobre a invenção, contrasta impressão em tábuas com tipos móveis e descreve processos de fundição de caracteres, matrizes e punções. O autor justifica a criação local de tipos metálicos para suprir necessidades acadêmicas e monumentais, apresenta provas tipográficas iniciais e analisa como práticas artesanais, rivalidades regionais e o aperfeiçoamento progressivo das técnicas determinaram a difusão e o aperfeiçoamento da tipografia.
