Printing Technologies and Book Production in Seventeenth-Century Japan - Elements in Publishing and Book Culture
Kornicki, Peter (Robinson College, Cambridge)
This Element first sets the history of printing in Japan in its East Asian context, showing how developments in China, Korea and elsewhere had an impact upon Japan. It then reexamines printing in seventeenth-century Japan and in particular explores the reasons why Japanese printers abandoned typography less than fifty years after it was introduced.
