One of the most important events in the history of the book, comparable in impact to Gutenberg's invention of printing, was the introduction of the codex at the end of the first century A.D. The poet Martial wrote several epigrams in praise of the new book with many folded skins which made it possible to have the whole of Vergil's writings in one volume. Dit boek is geschreven in het Engels.
