Johannes Gensfleisch zur Laden zum Gutenberg (c. 1398 鈥?February 3, 1468) was a goldsmith and printer who introduced modern book printing. His invention of mechanical movable type printing started the Printing Revolution and is widely regarded as the most important event of the modern period.[1] It played a key role in the development of the Renaissance, Reformation and the Scientific Revolution and laid the material basis for the modern knowledge-based economy and the spread of learning to the masses

His major work, the Gutenberg Bible (also known as the 42-line Bible), has been acclaimed for its high aesthetic and technical quality.



Today there is "Project Gutenberg" where, with volunteer help, an effort to scan, proof, and make available all non copyrighed books are available FREE online.What are the oldest Bible publishing companies?
