Stefan Fussel is a prominent German scholar whose work has made significant contributions to the understanding of the history of printing and book publishing. His research focuses primarily on the era of early printing, particularly the work of Johannes Gutenberg and other pioneers in the field. Fussel is not just a historian, but a true detective who uncovers the mysteries of early printing, analyzing paper, ink, fonts, and other details to reconstruct the history of each book.
One of Fussell's most famous achievements is his study of the Gutenberg Bible. The scholar studied each copy of this unique edition in detail, analyzed the technologies used in its creation, and revealed many new facts about the history of printing.
