@SteveClough FYI during the Russian revolution the Samizdat presses were transported in pieces from village to village by babushkas pushing prams. Never under estimate the power of the printed word. #Caxton a prince among men.

@Instrument_Data Adding a direct link to the #BritishLibrary announcement, since it has delightful images from the Chaucer manuscripts & early printed books: https://blogs.bl.uk/digitisedmanuscripts/2023/10/chaucers-works-go-online.html
Here's #Chaucer depicted in the initial "W" of the General Prologue of the Canterbury Tales: "Whan that Aprill with his shoures soote..." from Lansdowne MS 851, c.1410.

CW: Description of a violent (folkloric) melee with a cat.
Re that last retoot—the text from #Caxton is certainly evocative:
“[…] and he [the priest] smote tybert [ie, the cat] with a grete staf / Ther receyuid tybert many a grete stroke ouer alle his body / mertynet [again, the priest] was so angry that he smote the catte an eye out / the naked preest lyfte vp and shold haue gyuen a grete stroke to tybert”—
