Booooooooooooooooooooooooks man...
I have a bit of a bone to pick with Mr. Miller right now. Yes we learned about books and the printing press, but how did fictional stories become popular? how did Classic poetry and fiction books get spread to an audience? Were there publishing companies back then? What about graphic novels? These are just a few of the questions that I have for Mr. Miller about books. I do think that it was a good lecture, and yes I may have just wrote this because I wanted an excuse to say that I have a bone to pick, but these are real questions that I have and I hope they will be answered.

Of course, before Gutenberg's press made it possible to popularize fiction and poetry, those were pastimes enjoyed only by the elite.
ReplyDeleteComic books date back to the mid-20th century, but have their antecedent in illustrations and woodcuts dating back centuries.
