Description
Printing came late to the viceroyalty of New Granada — two centuries after Mexico, a century after Lima — and its output was small enough that it can be described in full. Eduardo Posada, founder of the Colombian Academy of History, did exactly that: every imprint of eighteenth-century Bogota, with its collation, its whereabouts, and what can be established about the printers. The result reads as an unintended portrait of a colonial capital, since a press prints what a society needs — novenas, edicts, funeral orations, and at the very end, the first stirrings of a political press.
