The printed book continues to enjoy much greater popularity than the eBook. This seems surprising, since the entire communication behavior has moved to digital devices. So what lies behind this? Why are there still printed books in digital times? Previous studies of the printed book have focused primarily on its media future, as this seemed threatened by digitization. In this work, Janina Krieger instead examines the past from three perspectives in order to gain insights into the present. While other studies always chose one method, which mostly belonged to the quantitative approach, here three subjects are identified, which are examined with different methods and in their combination can provide an answer to the research question: the consumers of literature (the readers), literature itself (the selected genre is the novel), and the media theories of the 20th century, which have already dealt with media change. The author Janina Krieger holds a PhD in German Literature and Media Studies from the University of Mannheim. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence. A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content. 606 $aBooks and reading$xTechnological innovations 606 $aDigital media 606 $aElectronic publishing 606 $aPublishers and publishing$xTechnological innovations 615 0$aBooks and reading$xTechnological innovations. 615 0$aDigital media. 615 0$aElectronic publishing. 615 0$aPublishers and publishing$xTechnological innovations. 676 $a070.5797 700 $aKrieger$b Janina$01277000 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910647386903321 996 $aThe Books' Road in the Age of Digitization$93009693 997 $aUNINA
