Hundred
Most Influential People in History

JOHANN GUTENBERG 1400-1468
Commonly
considered the inventor Johann Gutenberg's printing press. What he actually did
was to develop the first method using the moving block letters and the printing
press in such a way that the various kinds of written material can be printed
quickly and accurately.
No one who jumped from the discovery of one's thoughts, nor the printing press. Seals and seal spots adhere to the principle that the process is similar to block printing was known in China for centuries before Gutenberg was born and the evidence suggests that in the year 868 AD a book of prints have been found in China. A similar process has been known to people in Europe before Gutenberg. Block printing allows printing many copies of certain books. This process has one drawback: since a new and complete set of cukilan wood or metal must be made to a book, by itself it is not practical to print a wide variety of books. Often called the most important contribution was his discovery in the Gutenberg printing letters that can move. In this case also a similar case was discovered in China around the middle of the 11th century AD by a man named Pi Sheng. The letters of the original print made from a kind of land that can not be durable. Meanwhile, some Chinese and Koreans have done a series of improvements and managed well before Gutenberg. The Koreans use metal print letters, and the Korean government to help a smelter to produce printed letters at the beginning of the 15th century AD Apart from all this, is also wrong to assume that Pi Sheng had a special influence. At the first level, Europeans did not learn to print letters to move from China but the creation itself. Second, print in block letters move has never been used in general in China itself until just recently when modern printing procedures they learned from the West. There are four essential components of modern way of printing. First, the moving block letters, the following adjustment procedure and placement of the letters are well established. Second, the printing press itself. Third, matching inks to produce prints. Fourth, materials such as paper for printing. The paper has been found in China for many before the printing press by Ts'ai Lun and its use has been widespread in Europe before the time of Gutenberg. That is the only element of the Gutenberg printing process that is ready to be. Although others had done odd jobs for each component, but Gutenberg had successfully performed a variety of improvements. For example, he developed the metal alloy to print letters; pouring the liquid metal to block print letters appropriately and thoroughly; oil presses and the printing ink needed to print.

Gutenberg Printing Machinery
However,
the
overall contribution of
Gutenberg's
mind
more
than anyone else
in
terms of improvement of
the
printing press. Its importance
lies
mainly
in
its
success combines
all
the elements of
the
printing press to be
an
effective
and
productive
system.
Because
the
printing
press, in contrast to
other
previous
findings,
a
large-scale
production
processes
are
the
main. Sepucuk
gun
itself
is
much more
effective
than a
bow
and
arrow. A
printed
book
is
not much
different
from the results of
a
handwritten
book.
Excess
printing
thus
lies
in terms of
its
massive production.
What
has been developed
by
Gutenberg
was
not the invention
of
a
device or
reason,
and
not
just a series of
improvements,
but
a complete
production
process.
Biographical Treasury Gutenberg us about yourself so rare, we only know he was born in Germany around 1400 AD in the city of Mainz. Contribution to the art of printing in mid-century prints and terbagusnya job - a so-called Gutenberg Bible - printed in Mainz around the year 1454 AD Surprisingly, the name was never listed in Gutenberg any book, nor in the Gutenberg Bible, though he himself clearly printed with discovery tool. Gutenberg never appear as a businessman: he really had no desire to money from his invention. He is often involved with the court which resulted in the indictment must pay a ransom for him in the form of tools furnished to his friend named Johann Fust. Gutenberg died in 1468 in the city of Mainz.

One
of Gutenberg's
influence
in world history
can
be profitable
if
we associate
with the development
in China
and
Europe
in
subsequent periods.
At the time of
Gutenberg
was born,
the two
regions
were
nearly
as advanced.
But
after
Gutenberg
invented the printing press
of Europe
lurched forward
with
the speed,
while
China
-
which
still
uses
the block
print
-
progress
is rather slow.
Maybe
too much if
we
say
the development of
printing
the only
factor that
causes
differences in
the rate of progress
so,
but
the findings
certainly
have important meaning
that can not be
ruled out.
Also worth noting if only three people on the list this book live in the five centuries before Gutenberg, while sixty-seven lives in the five centuries after Gutenberg's death. It shows how Gutenberg's invention is very meaningful - even can be called an important discovery - in relation to the withdrawal of the trigger advances the revolution of modern times.
Alexander Graham Bell may not even come into the world but the phone remains found at the same time in history. Examples can also be taken so other inventions, without Gutenberg, the invention of modern printing will be delayed a few generations, and is measured from the great influence of the resulting, no doubt Gutenberg can honor the order listed in this book.
