For decades, a cacophony of technological prophets has repeatedly proclaimed the impending end of the paper era. But here we still are, a paper-using humankind.
Agnes Gehbald and me wrote an article about paper in global book cultures.
Our text highlights key stages in the global history of paper used in publishing, and argues that the material histories of a paper-using humankind – coined as paper regimes – from the second century BCE to the present are relevant and crucial to understanding global history: #GlobalBookHistory
"Paper Regimes of the Publishing World: A Bird’s Eye View on the Materiality of Global Book History" is published in open access in the journal Globalgeschichte / Global History, vol. 3.2 (2025), pp. 1-28, https://gg.harrassowitz-library.com/article/gg/2025/2/4
📕 Luís Trindade, Rita Lucas Narra, Ricardo Noronha, and Pedro Ramos Pinto are the editors of the book 'Global Histories of the Portuguese Revolution', the result of a seminar of the same name that we co-organised with the University of Cambridge over a period of two years.

Just discovered this, and after watching the video, I'm really thrilled (I fear I'll need a second life the sort through all the material). This projects brings together so many strands of knowledge I've been interested in for almost all my life:
