This scholarly work, written in the late 19th century, explores the significance, output, and technological advancements of the Oxford Press during its formative years. The text likely focuses on various notable works and authors that shaped the landscape of intellectual thought and literature during this period. The opening of the book introduces its purpose, which is to detail the history and output of the early Oxford Press, particularly from 1468 to 1640. It contextualizes the press in relation to the broader narrative of the University, emphasizing its role in theological and classical studies, alongside the burgeoning interest in English literature. The author notes the dominance of theological works amidst a variety of genres, including logic, philosophy, and historical maps, while also touching upon the social and cultural implications of the printed material produced during these years.
