Provide you could pay and read, what was on the shelves in the new bookshops was yours for the taking. The speed with which printing presses and their operators fanned out across Europe is extraordinary. From the single Mainz press of 1457, it took only twenty-three years to establish presses in 110 towns: 50 in Ita!0 in Germany, 9 in France, 8 in Spain, 8 in Holland, 4 in England, and so on.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9506</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Had the crow only fed without cawing she would have had more to eat, and much less of strife and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50234]]></link><description><![CDATA[Had the crow only fed without cawing she would have had more to eat, and much less of strife and envy to contend with.
