UIowa’s Atlas of Early Printing
The Atlas of Early Printing is an interactive site designed to be used
as a tool for teaching the early history of printing in Europe during
the second half of the fifteenth century. While printing in Asia
pre-dates European activity by several hundred years, the rapid
expansion of the trade following the discovery of printing in Mainz,
Germany around the middle of the fifteenth century is a topic of great
importance to the history of European civilization. This website uses
Flash to depict the spread of European printing in a manner that allows
a user to control dates and other variables.
Via Textual Studies, 1500-1800.
