Abstract
Writer, journalist, and printer Alix Christie, (VC'80) talks about her historical novel, Gutenberg's Apprentice (Harper Collins, 2014). "If ever there were a historical novel with up-to-the-minute resonance, this is it. As we go through another information revolution, Christie's novel takes us back in brilliantly-observed detail to the first – the invention of the printing press. Her characters are engaging, the world as beautifully crafted as one of Gutenberg's hot-metal letters, and the themes more relevant now than ever.",Authorship, Early Modern Studies, Guttenberg, Historiography, History, Independent Scholarship, Innovation, Journalism, Manuscripts, Media Studies, Medieval Studies, Print Culture, Religion, Technology, VC
