Printing the Event examines the use of print in the first decades after its invention. It analyzes how in this period print was used not only as a method to reproduce texts but also as a new medium to share news and ideas about current events. Focusing on the German-speaking territories in Italy, the volume aims to shed further light on the initial stages of a medium destined to have a wide-ranging impact on human history.
