Way back Wednesday:

It is Wednesday that means way back Wednesday on my blog. If you read my blog yesterday then you would know that I planned on talking about the printing press.  I'm not going to completely explain this like I did for the others. I'm going to mix it up! I will stick to what I think is the most important about the news press. I think that most important part was the literacy. This means people get the gift of being able to read and write. You are reading this yes? Well you have the gift of literacy. I am assuming that you went to school and learned and you parents knew. Meaning that your parents and other adults have already learned. This gift became available partly because of the metal printing press. Before this only the wealthy could read and understand what things like the laws said. Now it seems like everyone can read. If you think that the gift of literacy is not the important thing that came from the printing press, then comment and tell me! I am always open to feedback.

  1. Way-Back Wednesday, clever. And without literacy I don't think anything we have today, technology-wise would be possible.
