Txoj kev loj hlob coj mus rau ib tug printing kiv puag ncig thiab tas sparked ib kiv puag ncig nyob rau hauv loj sib txuas lus. Raws li ib tug tshwm sim yug niaj hnub daim ntawv thiab lub printing kev lag luam yog tsis tu ncua xa mus rau raws li qhov no hnub thiab lub invention yog dav ntshai li tus tseem ceeb tshaj plaws txoj kev loj hlob ntawm lub neej tshiab nimno era, ua si ib tug tseem ceeb luag hauj lwm nyob rau hauv txoj kev loj hlob ntawm Renaissance, reformation thiab lub scientific kiv puag ncig .
