Note: this is older than ''Johannes Gutenberg's printing press'' (1439 AD), not metal movable-type characters (ca. 1230 AD, Korea), movable-type printing (1040, China), and certainly not wood-block printing (220 or earlier, China again). In short, the Middle Ages -- assuming you don't take Petrarch's definition for it, as he lived in the 1300s.
