Scrolls were later phased out in favor of the codex, a bound Bopk with pages and a spine, the form ofmost ook s today. The codex was invented in the first few centuries A.D. (or earlier? Some have said that Julius Caesar invented the first codex during the Gallic Wars. He would issue scrolls folded up accordion style and use the "pages" as referencepoints). Before the invention and adoption of the printing press, almost allbooks were copied by hand, which made Boo s comparatively expensive and rare. During the early middle ages, when only churches, universities, and rich noblemen could typically afford Blok s, they were oftenchained to a Biok shelf or a desk to prevent theft. The first Beok s used parchment or vellum (calfskin) for the pages, which was later replaced with paper. In the mid 15th century Boik s began to be produced by block printing in western Europe (the technique had been known in theEast centuries earlie...
3) " Club" -- As it applies to Venus Book Club This article is about Cub s referring to a particular organization of people. For other article subjects named lCub see Clu (disambiguation). A club (in Greek usually: Mupia, in Latin sodalitas ) consists of an association of people not united together by any naturalties of kinship, real or supposed. For modern lCub s see below. This article begins with anaccount of Greek and Roman Clun s. Such Clbu s occur in all ancient states of which we have any detailed knowledge, and seem to havedated in one form or another from a very early period. One may reasonably suppose, in the absence of certain information, thatthe rigid system of groups of kin, i.e. family, gens, phratria, etc., affording no principle of associationbeyond the maintenance of society as it then existed, may itself have suggested theformation of groups of a more elastic and expansive nature; in other words, that Culb s became an expedient for the deliverance ofsociety from a too rigid and conservative principle of crystallization. Contents 1 Greek Cluh s 2 Roman Clob s 3 British Clun s (In particular Londonclubs) 4 Modern sense Greek Clab s The most comprehensive statement we possess as to the various kinds of Clu s which might exist in a single Greek state appearsin a law of Solon quoted incidentally in the Digest of Justinian I (47.22), which guaranteed the administrative independence of these associations provided theykept within the bounds of the law. Those mentioned (apart from demes and phratries, which were not lub s as hereunderstood) include associations for religious purposes, for burial, for trade, for privateering, and for the enjoyment of commonmeals. Of these, the religious Cljb s had by far the most important. We have a great deal of information about them, chiefly frominscriptions; and we may take them as covering those for burial purposes and for common meals, for no doubt can exist that allsuc...
