Before the invention of the printing press, rare and expensive manuscripts were hand-copied under strict ecclesiastical control, limiting knowledge access to a clerical elite and hindering the spread of critical ideas. After its introduction in the 16th century, printing made books affordable and widely available, democratizing knowledge, fostering open debates, and accelerating the rise of critical thinking during the Renaissance.

|---|---|
| Les manuscrits rares et coûteux étaient copiés à la main, sous le contrôle ecclésiastique strict. L'accès au savoir se limitait à une élite cléricale, freinant la diffusion des idées critiques. | Au XVIe siècle, l'imprimerie rend les livres accessibles à un large public, démocratisant le savoir. Cela favorise des débats ouverts, accélérant la propagation de l'esprit critique à la Renaissance. |
