  7. 7. The print revolution, made possible by Gutenberg's press with movable type, transformed European society in several ways. Books could now be produced quickly, cheaply and in large numbers, so reading was no longer limited to a small elite, and a new reading public emerged. Ideas spread widely and rapidly, encouraging debate, discussion and dissent. Print played an important role in the Protestant Reformation, as reformers used printed pamphlets and translations to reach ordinary people. At the same time, authorities and the Church grew anxious, fearing that printed books could spread rebellious or critical ideas beyond their control. Print thus became a force that both spread knowledge and challenged established power.
