This Element analyses the relationship between gender and literary letterpress printing from the early 20th century to the beginning of the 21st. Drawing on examples from modernist writer/printers of the 1920s to literary book artists of the early 21st, it offers a way of thinking about the feminist historiography of printing as we confront the presence and particular character of letterpress in a digital age. This Element is divided into four sections: the first, »Historicizing » traces the critical histories of women and print through to the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The second section, »Learning, » offers an analysis of some of the modes of discourse and training through which women and gender minorities have learned the craft of printing. The third section, »Individualizing » offers brief biographical vignettes. The fourth section, »Writing, » focuses on printers » own written reflections about letterpress. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
