Aus den reichen Inkunabelbeständen der Bayerischen Staatsbibliothek, die mit über 20.000 Exemplaren weltweit eine Spitzenposition einnimmt, werden etwa 100 Stücke gezeigt. Im Mittelpunkt stehen die «Gutenberg-Bibel» und der «Türkenkalender» von 1454, ein Unikat der Münchener Sammlung.

Gezeigt werden auch Beispiele für andere druckgraphische Verfahren, wie der Kupferstich und Metallschnitt sowie der Farb- bzw. Golddruck.

(Short description)
The invention of printing with movable letters is frequently described as a »media revolution« and compared with the effects of the »electronic revolution« of the past decades. While both events had far-reaching consequences on the production and distribution of texts, this companion volume to an exhibition intends to demonstrate that a gradual transition rather than a sudden turn-over took place in the second half of the 15th century. Increasingly, printing techniques were employed for the production of books, but the oldest printed books, traditionally referred to as incunabula, still included many individual features created by hand. Thus, innovation and tradition overlap in many respects: the modern printing techniques only gradually superseded handwriting, and for a long time, printed books continued to be decorated and corrected by hand.The invention of printing with movable letters is frequently described as a »media revolution« and compared with the effects of the »electronic revolution« of the past decades.
