Over the last thirty years, we have witnessed how the introduction of the internet and the rise of social media has spurred drastic cultural and social changes that have impacted all aspects of life. Many of the same themes can be discussed when looking at the shift from manuscript to printing at the end of the 15th century. In this episode, I highlight some of these cultural shifts and the impact of printing on society.
