Comment on Phones to be banned from pupils' bags or pockets under stricter rules for schools in England

Welcome to the 15th Century where books are prohibited in schools. We favour the age-old method of the scholar-teacher as the sole source of wisdom along with the use of slates for children to copy from The Bible uplifting Psalms and Verses. Allowing children access to books during the school day would only increase the transmission of unhealthy and ungodly ideas and cause disease and anxiety in young people. Naturally, in our better schools learning is conducted in Latin. Signed: His Majesty’s English Government.

What on earth are you on about.

Maybe stop spending all your time flipping pages on your book and you might get it? (Also a bit of basic historical knowledge about the history of the printing press and books would help.) Apologies if this went over your head though.

I can’t tell if it’s gone over my head tbh. It sounds like you’re likening the banning of mobile phones to the banning of books, which is just laughable. Which makes me think I’ve not understood. You’d have far more of a point if they’d banned e-readers and access to library computers, wikipedia etc.

Wrong. By the 1450s, Johannes Gutenberg’s movable type and printing innovations gave rise to early printed books (incunabula) such the Gutenberg Bible and the 1493 Nuremberg Chronicle, which used mass-produced book withImage woodcuts for illustrations.
